Yeah, I think it's one of those things where it goes against the spirit of how these things are done - a neutral interim leader would generally make it a fair playing field for all leadership candidates, but as it stands, Ignatieff would have to make some colossal screw-ups between now and then for anyone else to bother opposing him. Seems like absolutely everything that's going on in federal politics right now is 'against the spirit' of what we would like, while staying within the letter of the law.
