Warren Grabs the D-Ring and Ejects

This may be old news but I haven't seen anything about it on Liberal or Progressive aggregators so I thought maybe someone should get it out there.

Warren Kinsella has bailed on Michael Ignatieff. The Globe's Jane Taber says Warren, like Elvis, has left the building:

Warren Kinsella has quit as head of the Liberal war room, complaining in part about the treatment of Michael Ignatieff’s former chief of staff, Ian Davey, and ex-communications director Jill Fairbrother.

Although he says he has moved on and is still a federal Liberal, Mr. Kinsella told The Globe in an email this month he “was unhappy about the way in which some people were dealt with.”

“For example, Ian and Jill and others are my friends, and they brought me in. I didn’t like how they were treated but they moved on, and so have I.”


This seems to run true to course for the Liberal leader. Even at that I wonder if Kinsella would have ditched him if he thought Ignatieff had even a remote chance of winning the next election?

Update: I've since checked and found that WK posted the announcement himself yesterday on Liblogs. That's the price you pay for ditching those guys.
