Everything You Need to Know About the Bob Rae Campaign
1. Two candidates have withdrawn from the Liberal leadership race. Both have switched their support to Rae.
2. Bob Rae is backed by more Senators (ten) than any of his opponents.
3. Among Liberal bloggers, Bob Rae is running at 5.8% support, tied with Scott Brison for a distant fourth after Michael Ignatieff (31.4%), Gerard Kennedy (26.4%), and Stéphane Dion (24.8%).
(As for Bennett, she was an intelligent, articulate candidate who deserved better. But since when were leadership races, or elections of any kind, meritocracies?)
