2011 Canadian Provincial Elections - Wrap-up phase.

If the next permanent Liberal leader is Trudeau or anyone connected with Chretien and Martin, then the Liberals can spend another two elections in third party status fending off challenges from both the left and right.

Ralph Goodale would massively help the Liberals in the west and the suburbs of Vancouver and Toronto and would certainly be effective at grabbing soft CPC support (especially if Harper governs with an arrogant and complacent attitude), but he will have to write off Quebec which is too risky.

Unfortunately they cannot pick anyone who isn't already an MP, since no seat in the country is guaranteed Liberal, not even Montreal West Island.

Does anyone else have the gut feeling that Hudak is the right type of leader to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by taking his faux-populism too far?

Looks like that wasn't a joke after all.
