I dunno, if I am Layton, I am dancing inside. Even with his support, the Liberals were still pegged at losing the vote. Losing that vote would kill this incredibly socialistic budget that he demanded, rendering Layton's temporary stint as Prime Minister more meaningless than Kim Cambell's was.
But with Stronach, the Libs only need one of those independants to survive the vote, and implement a budget that no truely fiscal conservative would.
The only winner today is Jack Layton and his small band of misfits.
