It's fitting that in a week in which we await Anakin's turn to the dark side we witness Belinda Stronach's side step into the light.
Stronach always has been a social liberal who seemed too enlightened to be a part of the Conservative agenda, especially on the issue of same-sex marriage. This dramatic turn of events means the Liberal budget will probably pass the vote on Thursday and the Liberals have dodged yet another bullet. I would have loved to see the look on Harper's face when he learned about Belinda's switcheroo. On second thought, I doubt his expression would have changed one iota. The man is an emotionless robot.
You know what will be fun? Those future summits between Prime Minister Belinda and President Hillary. To be a fly on the wall...
