Rae Drops Out

It was just confirmed on CBC that Bob Rae has ended his leadership bid.

* This was a great move on the part of Rae. The Liberal Party needs a leader now that is permanent. We may be headed to the polls in January after all. But, as well, I think he realized that his legacy as an NDP premier of Ontario wasn't going to sit well right now.

He will without a doubt have a large roll in Parliament despite this though. Look for him to be a better asset as a non-leadership hopeful.
