They need a moderate centrist who can contrast favourably against both the NDP and the CPC, not an "NDP-lite" leader.

He's said in the past that he doesn't want to return to politics, but I wonder what it would take to convince Frank McKenna to run for the job? He'd easily win a majority government and be an absolutely fantastic PM.
I have my doubts that McKenna would want to leave his current life to rejoin the Liberal's. Hell, I'm a political animal, and I wouldn't want to join a party thats basically back shot its last three leaders.

As long as you have the senior leadership crew that you have there that party is going to be a mess.

Plus you have to compete with the heir apparent in Trudeau Junior.
