What next?

Given the NEW New Government we woke up with this morning (meet the New New Government, same as the Old New Government), there's obviously some work that needs to be done to remedy the stasis in Canadian politics. What?

Liberal leadership review? (Hate to say it but "Dion is not a leader". Nice guy, but not a leader.) Who? Who's our Obama?

Coalition left-ish party? (Pretty extreme and unlikely, and according to yesterday's numbers, no guarantee of electoral success since the CPC won more ridings than the Liberals, NDP and Greens combined.)

New strategy for progressive parties, like maybe, uh, start attacking the CPC instead of each other?

Or how about every voter just shows up at the next election and refuses their ballots on the grounds that nobody deserves their vote? (Heh -- a dream of mine, just had to throw it in there.)

Discuss.
