Bob Rae Top 11!
From the man who said he had experience and some things are "too hard" to do, Bob Rae emerges with another gem.
Apparently, Liberals should not choose the candidate with the best ideas. Pardon me? While I have to admit this was not part of Jacques Saada's pitch when he tried to get me on Bob's team, it does seem to explain how Ontario was run for the early 90s.
Does Bob plan on making this the Liberal pitch against Stephen Harper?
I can see the ads now…Sure the Tories have better ideas, but I am Bob Rae.
(Bye Bye Brampton, Bye Bye Ajax, Bye Bye Scarborough, Bye Bye Beating Harper)
I remember Marc Gendron's event flier in Drummondville this year "Who needs money when you have ideas?" so…
In honor of Bob's ridiculous statement, I have compiled the
Top 10 Bob Rae Qualities Which Are Better Than Ideas
10) Plays the piano…favorite song of Ontario Unions…I don't wanna work, I wanna bang on the drum all day.
9) Has buttons big enough to fill the holes in his credibility
8) Really adept at quoting NDP premiers
7) Rhymes with political favorites like Tom DeLay and Stockwell Day
6) Won "905 Premier of the Year" 17 years running
5) More days named after him than all other Canadian premiers combined
4) History with the color red consists mainly of his budgets
3) Has a sharp tongue…especially when he calls Liberals lepers
2) Turned cutting and running into a political modus operandi on issues ranging from Afghanistan to constitutional talks.
1) Made Kim Campbell's "elections are not a good time to talk about policy" the No. 2 worst political statement of all time.
So if you believe the people going around calling Bob Rae the "safe choice", there is a snowball salesman in Nunavut I would like you to meet.
UPDATE: After today’s revelations, I decided to include a number 11.
11) Thinks the Liberal Party is SO GOOD, he donates money to their opponents to make the challenge even harder!
Time for some investigative journalism…I’ll try and slot it in…in the meantime, click on my friend Kyle’s blog and take a look at the story. To think he was here this whole time and never bothered donating before.

Rae is by far the best political speaker and debater of the group. You are taking his comment out of context. As you know i do not support Rays candidacy as I think it would be devestating to the Liberal Party particularly in Ontario. I also don`t trust the man after his premiership of Ontario.
That being said, the man runs circles around everyone else at the podium, without question. If you can`t see that Antonio, you are just plain thick. Iggy is not a good debater. he is dour, says strange things and is easily shaken. Does he still have a cold by the way?
How many Liberal signs did Ignatieff plant on his lawn in London and Boston?
Just out of curiosity, when did Ignatieff take out his Liberal Party of Canada memebership?
Antonio,
You missed something in your list. Bob is a very generous guy, especially with NDP candidates...
Alex
Fuddle Duddle should really cover the Rae donation to the NDP story.
Tongue and Cheek ladies and gents
I was told I was wrong by a few rae supporters...apparently Bob does not play the piano...my apologies
but I will look into the NDP thing when I have time...prolly about October 2nd!
Bob Rae is a great speaker...I never said he wasnt...in fact he can quote NDP Premiers better than any Liberal I know!
Did any of our previous leaders ever gave money to any other federal party than the Liberal Party ?
If they did, Im sure they didn't within a couple months of running when the wheels of their campaign had already begun to turn.
Very constructive comment, Grit Heart... We're getting used to it.

"Both Rae and Boyd were thrilled with the NDP's showing in the election, winning 29 seats across Canada -- 11 more than in the last Parliament."
