Just a couple of months ago, she was seen as just as bad as Trudeau to lead the Liberals. Internally, she may be seen as the favoured candidate, but I don't see this changing Liberal fortunes in any meaningful way considering how 'none of the above' was the best choice.

I was thinking about that today, and Freeland is probably in theory the leading candidate, but she's going to be battered in a campaign, not only by internal Liberals that are want to knock her down for her act of betrayal against Trudeau, but she's given lots of ammunition to the Conservatives.



It was interesting in the latest 338 poll, the Cons in theory gained 5 seats since Dec 22, the Liberals lost those 5 seats and the NDP gained no seats.



I would have expected the NDP to profit from the demise of Trudeau, but they really haven't.
