Copps turning orange?

Well, how to make Cam update his journal more? Send him to a small town with no high-speed internet and nothing interesting to do!

So Sheila Copps might bolt to the NDP? Fascinating turn of events. Not sure what I want her to do... I certainly like her more than Tony Valeri, the Minister who is certain he's not pushing her out of the riding.

FYI: Riding distribution led two Liberals to want the same riding, though interestingly only Sheila actually *lives* in the riding. Paul Martin is a big fan of NOT SHEILA, so Tony Valeri is getting a bit of support behind the scenes, I suspect. Plus he's slimy.

If she goes to the NDP, she gives up any chance of being PM someday (not that her chances ever got over 20% or so). She also gives up the chance of being in government ever again. But she is such a lefty-Liberal that the NDP would be a great fit. And it would be a great boost for the NDP too... whatever your stripes, Jack Layton is certainly making waves and news.

Hmmm. Hmmm hmmm hmmm.
