Well, Brian Topp is in. I expected him to give it a go. I'm surprised Mulcair hasnt announced yet. I wonder if March meets his schedule which he was so particular about. I doubt I'll vote for Mulcair.

I'm not a card-carrying member of the NDP myself, so it's really none of my business. If the NDP wants my vote, all it has to do is run a quality candidate in my local riding.

Is there anyone in the country who can continue Layton's momentum or is the N.D.P. eventually going to drop back to 35 seats?

You deserve credit for that, I doubt if there is a political party in the country that warrants card carrying members! :smile:

We'll find out that answer in a few years. Its way to early to say yes or no. Harper isnt exactly Mr Charisma but got himself 3 governments, and no one expected Layton to succeed the way he did. In order to drop down to 35 seats again they'd have to lose seats to someone, in Quebec that would either be to another sovereignty party of some form or the Liberals-assuming the Liberals can make a comeback. Way too soon to say for sure if that will happen or not. The Conservatives are not likely going to take Quebec.

Harper would have to do some serious French kissing of French ass to ever make headway in Quebec. The French are a passionate lot and Harper is about as passionate as a wet dish rag.

They're also passionate about hating conservatism.
