The two from Calgary are pretty different from one another, both personally and ideologically... Can they form a functional and effective caucus? What CAN they achieve, without crossing the floor and joining a bigger-tent party?
The Liberal's will probably go the way of the Social Credit and vanish into the political landscape. Raj Sherman was probably the strongest leader that the Liberal's have had in decades and probably had the most compelling story and he couldn't capture the imagination of the voters.

The Liberal's need to look in the mirror, realize that their brand is dead and put the call into the NDP to merge the left.
