CHRETIEN: THE COMEBACK KID ?

With the Liberal Party trailing the governing Conservative Party by a wide margin in recent polls, rumours of fact and facts of rumour have been percolating to the extent that disgruntled Liberal insiders, both pro-Dion and supporters of his leadership opponents, have been exchanging knowing glances, innuendo'd emails, and philandering phone calls, all to the effect that time has come to seek out a strong consensus-building Liberal with the kind of hands-on leadership qualities that can handle the challenge that befits a man who has won three successive majority elections: Jean Chretien. The man is said to be ready and waiting for the call. His longtime praetorian guard, pollsters, and spin-meisters are all girding for battle. "Pierre, the scenario is simple", confided a Toronto-based politico well-known to late-afternoon TV watchers, "one way or another, the odds are stacked against Stephane. He'll go down in the election and the call will immediately go out for Chretien to be drafted into service." Developing.

It's not true. They needed a poster boy for April fools day and Chretien's name automatically popped up.

CHRETIEN: THE COMEBACK KID ?

You never know.

I heard a rumour that he is somewhere up in the backwoods of Shawinigan, laminating the 'Chretien logo' to hundreds of spanking new golf balls.

I think they should draft Richard Nixon instead - he's tanned, rested and only looks dead.

Given the recent allegations and conspiracy theories about the RCMP and the Chretien Liberals, Bourque has apparently let his minor fame go to his head. Or then again, maybe he's just insane.

Or maybe this is a bizarre scheme to get PR for Chretien's upcoming book?

[August1991]

Or maybe I should have looked at today's date.

Its G.W. again stirring it up you know how much hates Canada and our healthcare system - where's that conspiracy generator.

They are all the same.

Everything that we have paid taxes for will be sold out from under us in the NAU and if we want it back we have to buy it back again.

If Chretien doesn't go along with this he will get his head blown off like Kennedy did.

Wow. That's pretty harsh.

I thought August1991 was joking about the conspiracy theories. I guess not everybody did.

Well, it was Chretien who said Bush was "not a moron, but a friend", after Ducros spoke to the contrary.
