Y'know, I'd have a lot more time for Liberals squeamish about allegedly "undemocratic" forms of Proportional Representation if their current leader had ever, just once, actually prevailed in a competitive political process.
Note to Liberals: your guy -- the guy you all hope will be Prime Minister -- had to be parachuted in to the (Liberal-safe) riding he now holds, lost a contest to Stephane Dion, and then had to rig the succeeding process so that nobody could challenge him.
So please, do continue to tell us all about how problematic PR is because it makes MPs "unaccountable". Really. I'm all ears.
