  Glen Murray (updated)
Personally, I think his move effectively disenfranchises the hundreds of good Liberals who stood up to support him. Those people have been left in the lurch, and will now likely be forced to become “independents” – meaning they will have precious little chance of being elected anywhere this weekend. 17 Responses to “Glen Murray (updated)”Leave a Reply |

GET THE NEW SFH LP!
Must be one hell of a lasagna.
Just like he abandoned the citizens of Winnipeg when he was Mayor.
Boids of a feather, etc….
What an ignorant bigotted comment.
FYI, Im an out and proud gay man…..and the fact of the matter is, we do tend to stick together(though Im sure the thought of a possible cabinet post also played a part)….so take yer outrage and cram it…..
Finance Min I heard
I do not fault a candidate for dropping out when money has run out. But for a progressive candidate like GMurray to fold towards the establishment candidate is a slap in the face.
I was a Glenn supporter. Now I”m supporting Kathleen. I think both our camps share the same values. I really respect this move.
I don’t understand what Wynne gains by this timing. If she waited 4 days, maybe Murray wins 100 loyal delegates he then tells to vote for her. Now what? Does he tell people to vote for Kathleen during LEMs? What about the people who were running for him? Does he tell people to still vote for him during LEMs even though he’s now dropped out? Are his delegate candidates now independents?
I don’t think this helps Wynne. Murray would have won more delegates than she will gain during LEMs because of his endorsement and a lot less people would be disenfranchised and pissed at them.
Glen wasn’t really my favourite during the race, but this endorsement, along with other recent ones, really builds some nice momentum for Kathleen at a good time. It’s doesn’t mean anything until the final votes are counted though. My initial thought was to support Kathleen and then jump to Sandra once Kathleen was knocked out. It’s quite possible that my options will change. I’m quite impressed with her ability to organize and build support. Either way, I just want one of the women to win.
I think it is going to come down to Kathleen and Sandra on the final ballot.
Folks who are thinking Kathleen and Sandra on the final ballot may have also predicted Ignatieff & Rae on the final ballot in ’06. And where did that Dalton guy come from in 1996? Nobody had ever heard of him… until the very last balllot.
Bottom line: Don’t take anything for granted. *Anything* can happen.
(OK, probably not Premier Takhar, but almost anything)
Indeed! Good advice.
The only candidate without McGuinty baggage is Kennedy. Watch out for him.
He won’t have the baggage of my support either, if he wins.
If McGuinty has such “baggage”, why is Kennedy a Liberal (provincial today, as it would appear).
Glenn is dropping out to run for mayor of Toronto!
