When the big cats play

I see that Warren Kinsella has become involved in the federal Liberal party once again and has thrown his support behind Michael Ignatieff for the leadership. After all the negativity that Warren hurled at the man last time around, some people will surely see this as crass political opportunism on both of their parts. I'm not so sure. I think it's a prime example of the Alpha Human behaviour I was talking about last week.

Right now I'm reading Ignatieff's The Needs of Strangers. It would be kind of awesome to have someone with that much intellectual heft at the helm of the party. I'm not completely sold yet, though. I want to make sure that he's picked up enough political skills to avoid the kind of naive mistakes he was making in the last leadership campaign before I commit my support.
