Today's Ignatieff speech

Whoa. Someone's talking about social policy? Chock it up to inexperience, or a lack of political instincts. He's going to have to start pretending this is a US presidential election, like the other candidates/Liberals at large - rather than waste our time with something as petty as domestic poverty.

Apologies to Dryden and Kennedy: in fairness, both have produced social policy. They just gave it up after a while when faced with such a profoundly apathetic Liberal public.
