Yeah, it would have been a whole different vote and a whole different election and possibly a whole different Canada if Kennedy had 100 votes over Dion rather than the reverse. I doubt that Stephane Dion would have given his delegates to Kennedy given Gerards difficulty with French; it would be embarassing for a strong Quebec voice to throw his support behind a unilingual Anglophone from southern Ontario. At that point Dion could have just handpicked who would win the leadership, just as Kennedy did today. But it would have been less predictable. After Kennedy was bumped, I knew how the rest of it was going to play out so I did some Christmas shopping.
