Watched Duffy Live last night like I way too often do. I'm glad I did however, because I got to watch Gerrard Kennedy deliver an absolute verbal ass-whooping to Bernard Lord on the environment and a few other topics. Kennedy easily countered Mr Lord's attacks on Stephane Dion and himself and left Lord stammering and grinning his stupid grin. If the Liberals want to win the next election Kennedy should be on TV more often. Ralph Goodale has been good lately too, feisty. Even Ignatieff with whom I disagree on almost all topics has been effective. (Yes I watch too much Question Period.) Stephane Dion has yet to score big points with Canadians but has done the right thing when it comes to protecting their rights. He also plans to pull the troops out in 2009 when the current mission is over. This isn't fast enough for me but I predict that come this summer it will be a wildly popular idea among Canadians who will feel we have done our share and that other NATO countries should step up. In short there is lots to be positive about if you're a Liberal. I do think however, that there are many challenges ahead. Steven Harper and Karl Rove's attack and wedge election strategy can be very effective and attack adds can influence the weak-minded. Liberals should respond in kind if they must. This ain't no disco, this is war for the soul of Canada.
