Conservatives strike down the idea of allowing Rona Ambrose to run for leadership. Not a surprise, of course, but she is definitely my favorite of the Conservative veterans right now.

MacKay also said a few things about his interest and how he is  still a "recovering politician."

"I have two kids at home that I think need me at this point in their life," MacKay said in an interview with Don Martin, host of CTV News Channel's Power Play. "I'm blessed with a very supportive spouse who's doing the heavy lifting at home, and so those have to be the primary considerations towards any thought of returning to politics."

MacKay said he still considers himself a recovering politician and the seven months since he stepped down from the House of Commons may not have been long enough to think about a return. But he says he's encouraged that delegates at the convention seem interested in having him run.

At this point, I'll be supporting Lisa Raitt, if she does indeed run, with Peter MacKay being my second choice.
