It will be up to the party to either prove them wrong, or not. And were Justin to run, and win, it will be up to him to prove the substance is their and earn that credibility, or not.<br /><br />Dan,<br /><br />Agreed.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971310821484459106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-86631722004686468352012-06-15T14:32:38.293-04:002012-06-15T14:32:38.293-04:00The problem is, when you have many in the Liberal ...The problem is, when you have many in the Liberal Party urging the unseasoned Justin Trudeau to run for the leadership, not because of his vision or policies but because they thing he might be the next 'big thing' that will lead them out of the political wilderness, all talk of party principle and integrity lacks credibility.Lornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741324981120408977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-70195271370535557102012-06-15T13:43:13.997-04:002012-06-15T13:43:13.997-04:00Agree completely.

We're about evidence, not ideology.<br />2) Civil Liberties and privacy.
