Manley's out.
He says that he wants to have a hand in the rebuilding of the party but will not run for leader again. I wonder what he has in mind?
The article goes on to say that McKenna will likely inherit Martin's party machine. Do you think he really wants it? Where do you think ol' Scott Reid is going to fit into this. I would think in a line for an EI claim, but maybe it takes a little more than the gaffe of the campaign to get your ass handed to you by these guys.
It also makes some interesting comments about the timing of a possible leadership convention. They quote insiders as saying somewhere between November and February 2007. This gives them a few months to fill the coffers with new party memberships before the five month pre-convention cutoff. It also gives the Conservatives nearly a year to get their stuff together.
I wonder if there is going to be the same kind of membership foolishness as we saw in the last Liberal leadership convention. Oh yeah, McKenna's inheriting his party machinery, right...

of course there's gonna be membership nonsense. Instant Membership is an integral part of the political nomination process here in Canada - heck, my friends and I became Instant Liberals for a month years ago for a two-four of beer and because there was a hot blonde involved.
