Great line from Paul Wells

Great line in Maclean's by Paul Wells about this whole "Iggy-Nation" fiasco...

"All of this is happening because Michael Ignatieff landed fresh off the boat and didn't get properly briefed on the distinction between those two subtle Canadian concepts, a "good idea" and a "really freaking bad idea." As a direct result, the Liberal party is tying itself in knots over whether, and how, to "recognize" the Quebec "nation" in the Constitution."

Almost had me in stitches.

Now, to today's US Midterm election prognostications... that's to good old John Kerry, the Republicans will retain the Senate by a NARROW margin, but will still likely lose control of the House. But I'm still holding on to that small glimmer of hope... yes, I say HOPE, because the Democrats running the House will prove to be a disaster, mark my words.

On the bright side... the fiasco that the Dems will cause in the House over the next two years will only increase the GOP's chances of holding on to the White House in 2008. The next two years will be marked by ineffective governance, and as a result, the American people in 2008 will punish the people they think (or are convinced to think) are responsible... which will end up being the Democrats, NOT the GOP.

Just you wait and see... my prediction, and quote me on this, is that the Democratic win today will spell the end of Hillary's White House ambitions. (or whoever wins the ticket for the Dems in '08)
