Dan Arnold: A New Democratic Party by any other name would still be in fourth place Posted: August 12, 2009, 3:00 PM by NP Editor It seems everyone has weighed in on the possibility of an NDP name change. I could wax on at length about the pros and cons of this but, the short of it is, it's a dumb idea and it won't happen. Having gone to many a convention, you always get a motion or two that the media focus on a lot more than the party members, and I suspect this is that sort of motion...I'd be surprised if it gets over 20% support in the actual vote.
