Good, I like Jim Prentice alot.

Is he a shoe in to win the leadership? It depends who runs and who drives the membership campaign.

Can he win a provincial election? I'm not even sure if he can turn this PC mess around in the next 15 months. The PC's have given the opposition way to much ammo, not only on the whole entitlements stuff, but in the way that the PC"s do business and keep the books.

Personally I think the smart move for him would have been to stay away, see the PC's reduced to ashes in the next election and then come in and rebuild the party properly.
