On another issue, don't you think that social democrats like yourself (you're not a dyed in the wool socialist, right) would be better to move into the Liberal Party - as they are doing with the US Democratic Party.

Bob Rae (who could speak on his subject with prompting for hours because it came from his heart) did it, but there have to be the numbers of like-minded people so that the Bob Rae's of the NDP could make the changes. Otherwise they would be drowned out just as I believe the small number of SDs in Washington will be.
