SHOCKER! Bennett is Out
So apparently Carolyn Bennett was running for the Liberal leadership.
Did you hear about this? Anyway, she's dropped out and endorsed Bob Rae. Some of her immediate family members have followed suit while her other supporters left the phone booth they occupied to join Stephane Dion's campaign.
She made the decision after the surprising realization that she had no chance to win. Good-bye Dr. Bennett, we hardly knew ya.
Ignatieff no longer in love with George W. Bush.
Brison's tax policies make sense.
The surprisingly effective Martha Hall Findlay gets the Globe profile treatment. Do you believe in miracles? Well, neither do we but she has set herself up as someone to watch. Rock on Martha.
