What about Bernard Lord, everybody was talking him up? I don't know much about him.
Brian Tobin?

I also thought that he would be better, but you are righyt. He was setup. Chretien, as much as I can't stand him, was a brilliant polititian. I think if he really wanted to he probably could have run again and won again. Thinking back on him stepping down with my hindsight 20/20 glasses, maybe he knew that all the quebec ad scandal stuff was going to blow up.
I was watching the news last night and I saw a clip of Martin meeting the Queen. I have to say, I felt so much better with him meeting heads of state than with Chretien meeting them. The meeting looked so normal. It actually looked official. Somthing we have not seen in a long time.
