The follow on to this is that if the coalition fucks it up, there won't be another coalition government for *many* years.

In that spirit, I would feel better if the coalition was Chretien, Broadbent and Bouchard. Wait a minute,..that is who are pulling the strings behind the scenes
sans Bouchard isn't it?
I see your point Charletan and I admit it would be interesting to see something different like that,..I just don't like the cast involved. Maybe it's the glow of infered greatness bestowed onto Obama that really casts a pale over our **gulp** leaders.
