A day after Jack Layton's announcement that he was stepping down let's get one thing clear.
He ain't dead.
Jonathan Malloy, a political scientist affiliated with Canada's 46th best university, Carleton, does more than write off Mr. Layton in his column in this morning's National Post, he puts the NDP on life support.
We are running out of parties here folks.
Mr. Layton's popularity is what propelled the NDP to their big numbers. But bullsh*t luck was a bigger part of the equation and unless the next leader of the NDP is a total political incompetent there is no reason that with or without Mr. Layton that the party cannot continue its prominent place on the political stage in Canada.
