Scheer will decide over the summer.

DC: Not even then, because there were no Blue candidates back then. Lost their best chance with O'Sullivan IMO.

Kenney is Edmonton-bound to commandeer the hulk as a merger candidate.

Ivison: Raitt is the best choice, both she and MacKay are still undecided, though Raitt says she's more than 50% inclined to run.

LMAO. He'll get parts of the Prairies and that's it. In a GE, a strident, single-issue socon would get results closer to Alliance 2000 than Harper in 2004/15.

Trost has company. Hopefully Raitt saves us from this clown car.

Lisa Raitt's not going to win, unless there is some underground super campaign going on, a la Patrick Brown.  Is there one?


Who will win then? No one has an organized super campaign.

Peter MacKay will probably win if he runs.  Otherwise I'd guess there are 4 early fairly equal front runners: Lisa Raitt, Tony Clement, Kellie Leitch and Maxime Bernier.

Maxime Bernier is not winning. He is a laughing stock in the province that know him.

Will be hilarious to see the ROC pundits giving him "strange new respect" get so many eggs on their face.

Is he? He just got reelected in his Beauce riding with nearly 60% of the vote, and the latest poll of Conservative supporters had him at 10% nationally and I presume most of that came from Quebecers.

He may be 'laughing stock' among non Conservatives in Quebec, but he seems to be very well liked by Quebec conservatives.

You're wrong. He's not popular at all outside the Beauce. His economic proposals interest me but I have zero interest in putting anywhere near first preference.

The same way I explain leadership polls that showed Christine Elliott and Gerard Kennedy winning.

I don't put much stock in leadership polls is my point. I'm getting only a bit more spam from him than I am from Leitch.

DC: Not this free-marketeer. Tongue

MacKay interview with Solomon. He doesn't sound terribly interested, IMO. Besides, where would he run? He can't be outside the House for 2+ years or carpetbag in ON and get Meighen'd given our ON numbers right now.

As expected, MacKay won't run.
