I thought this warranted its own thread:
| Quote: | | Ignatieff told reporters Sunday in Toronto that he sticks with what he's said all along — he's willing to work with every political party even if that means working with Layton in an NDP-led arrangement, if that party wins more seats than the Liberals. |

If Ignatieff gets less seats than the NDP, he won't be leading the Liberal Party. It'll be Bob Rae (or maybe Trudeau) who has to work with Jack.

Where has Iggy been all month?
| Quote: | Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff declared Sunday that the election campaign has just begun, and looking at his party's sluggish polls and a surging NDP, he better hope he's right.
"I just think that in lots of ways, the election has just begun," he said in Toronto. "I think we have got a week in which we choose a government ... and so, I feel as we get down to final, to the May 2, this is what it's going to come down to: who do you trust to govern the country?"
Unfortunately for Ignatieff, polls suggest that Canadians are increasingly saying that NDP Leader Jack Layton might be the person they trust to lead the government.
With the Liberals unable to gain any momentum in the polls, the party took out a new 30-minute infomercial inviting Canadians to get "up close and personal" with Ignatieff. |
