Liberals could soon need Rae more than he needs them

There has never been much question about what Bob Rae would like to do with his life when he’s finished being the Liberals’ interim leader. He’d like to drop the interim and take on the job full time.

He’s danced around the issue when asked, but not with much conviction. He agreed not to seek the full-time position while holding the interim title, and has stuck to that. But nothing ever prevented him resigning the part-time job and mounting a campaign to contest the full-time leadership.

During an appearance in Prince Edward Island on Saturday he made even less effort than usual to hide his ambitions....................http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/201 ... eeds-them/

Rae will be disastrous and I think the party brass knows it. With Mulcair pretending to move to the centre, Rae would easily get squeezed out and Ontario would lock out all Liberal votes.

The Liberals should gamble on Trudeau. Beg him to run and give him a team.
He probably wouldn't win in 2015, but in contrast to fat, angry beared Liberal NDP leader Thomas Mulcair, he'd look like a breath of fresh air.
Be some nice vote splitting for Harper.
