I liked Dion throughout the race, but I have to admit I never expected him to win. I must echo Ace's sentiments about Ignatieff...I think he ran his mouth too much and would have had trouble garnering significant support from the public. I think Dion will probably appeal to people because he's a centrist for the most part, and he's soft-spoken and amiable - but not so shy that you think he's up to something (like Harper). That's all appearances though. I think he's an intelligent person, is well spoken, and I generally like his policies, particularly his view of national unity (given the recent Quebeckers thing).
