Gotta love Rick Mercer

If an American presidential hopeful did something like this, it would sink him. But this is Canada, and Bob Rae probably just netted himself a chunk in the Liberal leadership race.

All puns absolutely, 100% intentional.

I don't think it will help him - opinion in the blogosphere is that he made an ass of himself (literally).

I still prefer Iggy's faults to any of the other candidates' strengths.

Being for both the invasion of Iraq and torture are some rather big faults. He'll never get my vote, that's for sure.

He may be better than Harper, but only in the way that having a broken finger is better than having a broken arm.

I agree. He's not only Americanized, he's Republicanized.
