The Liberals
were a centrist party. They tried to go left, and discovered Layton does it better than they do. You'll see Ignateff's replacement head back to the right. I wonder how much this result will hurt Bob Rae's chances of becoming leader? People flatly rejected the idea of a socialist Liberal party.
