Lowered expectations

So let's get this straight: the same Libs who just last week were (rightly) up in arms over a backroom deal to break what was once a hard-won concession to end Canada's military involvement in Afghanistan...are now parroting the party line based on nothing more than the fact that a vote will take place in which the Libs once again give cover to the Cons.

I'm sure Michael Ignatieff and company are glad to have a base that's so easily brought back in line. But doesn't it speak volumes about how little the Libs stand for if even their supposed activist supporters are willing to ignore any semblance of substance as the price of claiming victory on a minor process point?
