- Don Martin: Hiring Donolo. The myth
- Whenever Liberals gaze longingly into their Scotch, reminiscing about those bygone days of government power and payoff glory, they sometimes whisper the name ‘Peter Donolo' with mythical reverence.
Today we play Inside Baseball by noting that, ten years after leaving politics for a series of patronage and polling jobs, the same Donolo who served as Jean Chretien's communications guru returns as Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff's top sidekick.
If the news of his return is any indication, the myth is no longer the man as he launches a mission to salvage his political alma mater from its slide toward oblivion.
The appointment leaked out just as Tuesday afternoon television politics shows were going to air. Confusion reigned. Liberal apologists didn't know what to say or do. The data was repeatedly denied by a communications director who is, incidentally, the partner of the chief of staff now being metaphorically thrown under Mr. Ignatieff's bus.
