He told CBC Radio's Eleanor Wachtel that politics is “the most incredible adventure of all the adventures I've had in my life. … It's been unforgettable no matter how it turns out.”

yeah.. that's the commitment I want from my political leaders..

If it weren't for the CBC pushing the crap out of him, he's be gone by now. He's Dion with no Canadian work experience and a better PR person.

How about this?

He told Adam Gopnik of The New Yorker: “I've been a spectator a lot of my life but this is about acting. … You have to be ready for combat, and you have to lead troops.” It's not that it's wrong to reflect on life's twists and turns, but he seems so captivated and preoccupied. Instead of revelling in the fab experience of being an actor, how about just Doing Something?

To Iggy the job as Opposition Leader is just one those experiences he is collecting that he can take back to Harvard later.
