Actually, the successor to John Tory will be a blue Tory, most likely Tim Hudak. More of a Mike Harris type leader. |

Don't you worry,
Klees or Hudak which look to be the front runners are much more Mike Harris, and much less John Tory. |

| I have a soft spot for Randy Hillier, seems like the most principled of the bunch. |

The thing about it is, how has John Tory maintained his grip on the party up till now? Obviously, he has some effective machinery in place. Also obviously, he is going to be the one who chooses who inherits this machine.
Seriously, here is a failed leader, a guy who has proven beyond doubt that he cannot and will not win an election. Yet he has survived leadership reviews, and all manner of challenges. That kind of stuff does not happen by accident. Think of the riding by riding takeover of Paul Martin, then apply that to the Ontario PC party. |

I'm sure that is a soft spot. |

| I like Hillier but I think that he could easily be portrayed as a "red neck" of sorts. |

Tim Hudak would be my choice.
Rumor is that MPP's in Simcoe ridings are putting their support behind Tim. |
