Liberal leadership: history to repeat itself?

Democratic Space, run by UCLA doctoral student Greg Morrow, is tracking the delegate count for the Liberal leadership convention. (Although since the actual delegate selection meetings have yet to occur, I suppose this is more of a prediction than a track.)

The results are pretty much what you'd expect with Ignatieff clearly out front and the other big names -- Kennedy, Rae and Dion -- trailing, each with about the same level of support.

What first came to mind when I saw these numbers was to question whether we might see a replay of a past contest come convention time. If Democratic Space's numbers are even close to accurate, I think it's a distinct possibility.

So, then: if Ignatieff is Claude Wagner, who is Joe Clark?

Oh, this could get fun.
