Worst case scenario, and things go bad with or without this seperatist coaltion, they can throw Dion under the bus (as they did within 5 mins of the election already anyways) and talk about a brand new, improved, Liberal party.
Good points, but I think they have underestimated how much of a backlash this will have on the liberal party. NDP not so much, they could care less how they come to power as long as the most evil person in the world (Harper) is ousted. But the libs? I give a lot more credit to Liberal thinkig people, they can be swayed with reason. And a lot of them will not be happy with the Liberal party for a long time to come no matter who is running it.
