Iggy's got the family biz. Time for a Big Re-Org

Charles Ritchie's godsons have had it out. One was left standing, holding the keys to the battered, creaky old family business. The business needs to be re-organizied immediately.

I took down allot of the mean things I said about Bob. Its not fair to say mean things about Bob right now even if you are an anonymous orphaned blogger. He is funny after all, and that does count.

I have allot less sympathy for Bob's geezer brigade (Sharon and Lloyd that means you) still whinging tonight about "democracy" and "one member one vote". Shut up you hypocrites. As of 2 years, 8 weeks, really up until 24 hours ago not one Rae supporter or Bob ever said a peep about "one member vote".

In fact up until mid Monday morning the Rae Campaign was quite pleased with the prospect of the ridiculously expensive deeply un-democratic Vancouver Leadership Convention in May. ie Ralph Goodale as "Interim Leader" for 6 months, warming the PM's chair for Bob.

Everyone knew that by May Iggy would have no money left, and Bob would have cash in hand. Lower mainland BC was Bob's best hope for winning.

Either Bob or Ignatieff was going to "win" this thing in some tortured ugly process.

Ignatieff's first job as Leader should be to torch a whole bunch of rules, people, and big swaths of Liberal culture, and begin again. He is definately going to need Bob's help, for sure. BR + MI Together forever.
