We really should put this issue to bed. In two years time when the election rolls around no one will remember that two Conservative MP's went to the States to talk about the Khadr payment. If we remember a poll we will remember the poll that reported that most Canadians, that's Liberals as well, were not happy with the payment to Khadr. If the issue does come up during the campaign it will be simply that the Liberals paid Khadr $10.5 M. By itself it won't be enough to stop the Liberals from being re-elected, and even Conservatives know this. However incumbents are defeated not on one issue but on many, and this will simply be added to the list.
