Crysalis and the Liberals

This one is entertaining John.  Several years ago I said the Liberals were heading to the woodshed.  From a Conservative perspective Iggy was a terrifying force.  A force that ultimately fizzled.  The Liberals emerged from the woodshed too soon.  The necessary chrysalis was aborted before the transformation could occur.  Pity.  Had party mandarins not been in such a rush to force a liberal prime-minister on the country so soon after their corruption was manifest.  Even if he had potential, the timing was a disaster.  Of course, those party mandarins weren't getting any younger.  But the orderly transfer of party leadership has often been rather messy instead--particularly one so mortally wounded.
