They Hired The Crack Team Behind The Palin Investigation
You know something? Were I the Harper government and about to poke the political and aboriginal establishment in the eye by making one of the youngest Senate appointments ever, I might have been inclined to vet him a little more carefully.
Senator Patrick Brazeau may go on to show the promise his CV represented on appointment day, however he's very much behind the eight ball to begin and will be playing catch up for at least a couple of years to build his credibility. Sexual impropriety is nasty business to get caught up in, whether fairly or unfairly. Add in the rest and it'll take hard work to establish an image of earnest hard work.

"...at first blush.....with potential."

(Knew someone was going to scroll back enough to grab the quote, but I couldn't link to it this morning due to company filters. Glad it was you Curtis...Glad it was you.)
