| Hard to believe, given his present unsinkable clout, that Goodale was once a political punchline simply for his leading the hopeless cause of the Sask Liberals. Then again, said clout's a mixed blessing in how it's led to the artificial boosting of federal Grit numbers elsewhere in the province--at the expense of the NDP. And the resulting mutual cancellation has led to non-Wascana Saskatchewan becoming a federal Tory monolith instead. Oh well, at least Goodale himself is safe... |

Of course Ralph is going to win here there’s almost no chance he will lose. Clearly he is one of the heavyweights of the party and no doubt would be an important minister in the next government if the Liberals win. Im actually going to predict Ralph Goodale(If he runs) will win the next leadership convention for the Liberals if they cannot win the next election or the one after. I mean think about it, He's western which is where the Liberals definitely need to rebuild, very popular and honest and he was cleared of the income trust scandal and the RCMP investigation, somewhat fiscally conservative which plays well out there and very experienced in parliament(He was an MP in 1974-1979 as well as since 1993) and has leadership experience as the leader of the Sask Liberals in the 80s. Pretty much all the tools necessary to win a leadership convention. With Gerard Kennedy not pursuing a seat out west, Ralph gains more credibility as one of the only western heavyweights for the Liberals and someone who can rebuild them in the west. He just needs to learn how to speak better French i guess. And of course he'll win in Wascana in a landslide. |

| Goodale's large personal support coupled with Calvert's attacks on Harper should ensure the grits keep this one! |

| Even with the personal scandal over income trusts (of which he has since been cleared of any wrongdoing) and the general disastrous Liberal campaign in 2006, Goodale still got over 50% of the vote. Easy Hold for the Grits. |

| Ralph Goodale is one of the most popular MPs ever. The income trust scandal in late 2005 did not hurt his re-election chances as it was more of a vote for Ralph Goodale rather than the Liberal Party of Canada. Solid reputation, honest, decent and a man of integrity, Ralph puts down partisan politicians with bad manners and boorish decorum to shame. An easy cakewalk for Ralph Goodale and expect this riding to stay redder than a Coca-Cola pop can on election day. |

| If Ralph Goodale could win by a large margin when under the RCMP investigation for the income trust leak, he should easily win this time after being cleared. He is very popular in Saskatchewan and as long as he remains MP this should stay Liberal. Once he retires, though things could change here. |

Nick J Boragina 74.99.228.118 |
| so long as he keeps running, Goodale will keep winning. he is very popular in this riding, and won the last two elections here with extreme margins, despite the rest of the province going tory blue. Liberal lock. |
