I always liked that Anne...

In these dying days of the Liberal Empire I would like to say a few kind words about Anne McLellan because I don't think she's going to make it this time around. "Landslide Annie" has always been the first to admit that she wins her seat so that at least one Alberta Liberal can be at the table. With the Liberals sunk I think she's done though. No more election night drama over whether she wins her seat by 300 or 400 votes. Parliament will miss her. She was well spoken, professional, intelligent, and a fierce debater. She was also one of the few current Liberals to recognize that bashing Americans is pretty childish, and had a strong relationship with them. She also somehow became the only MP Martin ever actually listened to. That alone is proof she did her job well. I'm sure she will enjoy a 300k pseudo private sector job and her MP pension she actually earned.
