Ed, you gotta link to the news about David Emerson defecting to the Conservatives from the Liberals for a cabinet post. I had to read the news to understand. How degrading.

I'm so glad the old debate about switching sides has been brought up again. (I somehow don't see any prominent Liberals calling him a man-whore, though.) I guess this is the ultimate hypothetical ("what if the MP switches parties right after an election?")

It seems like the epitome of political sleaze, but I still stand by the notion that you voted for a person who happened to represent a party, not the other way around. Besides, it keeps James Rajotte out of cabinet, so I'm not entirely displeased.

Not the article I was looking for, but a good one nonetheless.

"I'm going to be Stephen Harper's worst enemy," he warned. "We're going to stir the pot and you better believe we are going to make a heck of a lot of noise."

I'm glad to see I still get to be cynical with the new government.
