“Paaaul, Paaauuul – do you hear me?” [Ed.: insert your own scary ghost sounds here]

The CBC’s web site is running the most unattractive rather toady picture of the man who would be Prime Minister, minority leader Paul Martin this morning. He looks haunted by something…or someone. Could it be the news that the Tories are going to move amendments to today’s speech from the throne? Could it be that the ghost of MacKenzie King is whispering in his ear that he has blown it before it even began?
