	If Bob Rae is so Unelectable, Why are you Afraid He'll Win? (Bow. James Bow.) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		In 1990, Bob Rae’s NDP was elected to a majority government with 37.6% of the popular vote (a good argument for proportional representation, methinks).
		Rae had the decency to defend his time in office in 1995, and enough people responded to give the party the largest level of public support that they’ve since enjoyed.
		Rae is just the sort for that, a bored elitist who is no more tied to Social Democracy than he is to some parlour game he may recently have tried out, or a few bars from some melody tapped out at the piano.

	CalgaryGrit: Leadership Profiles: Bob Rae
		Rae has developed a reputation as a statesman in recent years, writing the aptly titled Rae Report, and advising on a potential Air India Inquiry.
		Not necessarily disagreeing, but Rae and Harris were in very different positions in that Harris led one of the province's two established parties, with strong bedrock support, while Rae was the first ever NDP leader, and thus most of the support that won him the election was "borrowed" from traditional supporters of other parties.
		Bob Rae would present the same problem to Harper and his neocons' framing of the issues as Howard Dean does to the Bush neocons: a match of honesty and transparency against disingenuous deceit.

	Reading Bob Rae :: Views :: thetyee.ca
		Rae's magnanimity about copyright -- "change the name if you like" -- is perhaps the only thing in the world more laughable than the idea that any union leadership in its right mind would bring before its membership a proposal that they accept such a scheme.
		Rae, like Dosanjh and BC's own current Carol James, all typify and speak to a process of "Liberalization" (As in Liberal Party) which has been at work in the NDP for a very long time-, certainly over the course of time since Tommy Douglas in his Saskatchewan heyday.
		Bob Rae is a class act, and he was right to abandon the party and union members who abandoned him so cruelly in the 1990s.

	CIVITATENSIS » Blog Archive » Bob Rae Wants the Federal Surplus
		Rae is unhappy about the recent cuts implemented by the federal government, and laments that these cuts are being made on “ideological” grounds –cuz everyone know that liberals don’t make ideologically based decisions.
		In the subtext of his piece, you can almost hear Rae saying that the federal surplus should be spent, and since it is to be spent, he’d love to be the one spending it because he knows precisely what to spend it on.
		In light of the magic that Rae performed on the Ontario economy while he was premier, his mere suggestion that he would do better with any public purse shows that the man is either an amnesiac or a shameless man.
