386...Jack Layton Done Like Dinner?

Now that JACK FM in Toronto is history the only Jack left in the Big Smoke is Jack Layton and if one is to believe what Richard J. Brennan wrote in this morning's Toronto Star, Jack2 is on his way out too.



By the way, you know, you know when they use an initial they mean business. If it was merely "Richard Brennan", okay, but "Richard J. Brennan" now we are talking some serious stuff.



I digress.

In a story headlined "Layton goes from kingmaker to bystander; Bubble has burst for NDP leader since coalition, and party has lost its momentum from 2008 vote" Mr. Brennan makes the point that when compared to Stephane Dion, Jack Layton was brilliant. When compared to the next Prime Minister of Canada, Michael Ignatieff, not so brilliant.

Support for the Dips was as high as 27 per cent during the fall election period; right now it is about 15 and that will translate into a lot of ex NDP MPs if it stays that way.
