Promising signs

I'll reserve any final judgment until we see some more substantive policy effects rather than victories that are more symbolic than substantive. But Robert makes a strong case that Layton has managed to largely set the parliamentary agenda so far. And it isn't hard to foresee that being only the beginning of the NDP's ability to shape how Ottawa does business - both in this Parliament, and in the future as voters compare the NDP's results to the Libs' unwillingness to do anything but sulk about not being in power.
