Credit Where It's Due

I think Bob Rae has been outstanding, nay the best, by far, throughout these last days and I fully endorse this analysis. That said, credit where it's due to Iggy. My views of his candidacy haven't changed but I'm glad he's shown some sense (I'm trying very hard not say "for once"): "Mr. Karygiannis has engaged in action that it seems to me is -- I hesitate to, I choose my words carefully -- extremely disappointing. And his characterization of what happened in caucus is entirely wrong, entirely wrong. Let me make that entirely clear. This caucus is 76 men and women striving to be worthy of the hour. There isn't a person back there who isn't aware that we are facing the most serious political crisis, constitutional crisis, and economic crisis this country has faced since the 1930s. Every single one of us is aware of the seriousness of this. Every single one of us is trying to rise to the expectations which Canadians have of us. Mr Karygiannis' characterization of these discussions today is unworthy of the caucus to which he belongs. [...]

We have a leader and his name is Stephane Dion."
