Because Every True Communist Knows…
True democracy only has one choice. Therefore, Bob Rae is bowing out of the leadership race.
Bob Rae has told his supporters in a conference call Tuesday that he will end his bid for the Liberal leadership, CTV News has learned.
CTV’s Ottawa Bureau Chief Robert Fife confirmed Tuesday that Rae will not challenge frontrunner Michael Ignatieff — virtually ensuring that Ignatieff will become Liberal leader.
Rae is expected to formally confirm his withdrawal from the race at a press conference at 3 p.m. ET in Ottawa.
I don’t like Bob Rae, and Michael Ignatieff may be the best choice for leader. But if I’m a Liberal today, I wonder what happened to my party that a guy who lived and worked in the United States his entire adult life, is the only guy in the race to lead my party.
Frankly, the Liberals talk about renewal, but without the debate that a leadership race brings, how do you achieve renewal?
History may show that Stéphane Dion did far more damage to the Liberal party than can currently be imagined.
The little rats are punted off the good ship Liberal,
leaving just the big rats to ‘rebuild’.
