Schreiber Affair about to blow up in Liberals face?
Oops... it seems that former Liberal Cabinet Minister André Ouellet lobbied hard on behalf of Mr. Schreiber's little arms deal.
Oops is right... because you know that Mr. Ouellet is going to be under a very narrow microscope for the next few weeks, and the media is going to be looking for any sort of link whatsoever. And if they find one?
Let's just say I would not want to be in Mr. Dion's shoes if they do, because his plans for a February election could very quickly turn into a Febrary 2009 election... with a new Liberal leader.
On the note of past scandals and polls, we have these numbers from Decima... 36% vs. 28%, and that was during the height of the Schriber nonsence of the last few weeks. Now... imagine, for a moment, if you will, the numbers we might see next week if a tie to the previous Liberal government is discovered...

Isn't Andre Ouellette the Canada Post exec who reported over $2 million in expenses with no receipts?

Maybe this explains Dion's decision to suddenly distance himself from the so-called 'scandal'. Just the other week he started urging his members to avoid thinking of it as a 'gift horse'.
Maybe he realized what could be coming?

... and perhaps the MSM might even remember Chretien and the Grand-Mère Golf Course.

One can only hope.
