ONE love, blood, life
it was announced yesterday that bill graham will be the interim leader of the liberals as paul martin removes himself from the scene.
but my question to canadians, and others who are familiar with our politics (melon, etc.) is why isn't his name being thrown about as being the liberal leader?
he seems like someone who's respected in almost all circles (even harper sang his praises upon his appointment), and has lots of political experience both in domestic and interenational affairs.
do you believe he's not being truly considered because he's part of the "old" team, and the party is now looking for new blood?
the other candidate i'm curious about is pierre pettigrew, our outgoing foreign minister.
the soon-to-be-out-of-office mp of papineau, quebec, also has plenty of experience and was a key figurehead in both the chretien and martin governments.
the only problem with him is the fact that he lost his very own seat a week and a half ago to the bastards (ie: bloc).
i'd like to see either of these two take a go at the leadership, certainly ahead of the others currently being cited as potential candidates.
thoughts?
