Kennedy could be in second place by tomorrow if his Ontario numbers keep coming in this strong. And that Rae and Ontario thing, oh yeah, that's real.

Kennedy, Dion and Rae will be very close in the 2-4 spots, with the remaining (mail-in) QUE numbers giving an edge to Dion & Rae.
The Rae voters will go to Dion or Kennedy after Ballot #1. If alternance becomes a key issue with them, Kennedy has an edge. Rae - meaning his Power Corp. backers - may decide to cut a deal very quickly. Given the number of ex-Chretienites in his camp, advantage DION.
Iggy delegates will stick with him through Ballot #2, and then start dispersing. Ditto Dion & Kennedy delegates.
However, the automatic delegates could decide to vote en masse and give the edge to any one of them, including Ignatieff.
Volpe will not win or be a power broker. Like Dryden & Brison, his leadership campaign appears to have come to a dead end.

Leaderships are two things: they are about picking people than can win and they are back room dealing between power brokers.
they are NOT: popularity contests despite what many amateurs believe.

Tomorrow? Heck, he’s within 46 delegates of Rae right now. (603-557)
Give it an hour.
Very exciting to watch.
