On Nycole Turmel NDP Caucus Leader

I'm certain that Ms Turmel has the necessary managerial skills to handle running of the caucus. It helps that she has the backing of the entire caucus as well. If Jack comes back at all, I'm sure that he will not have regained all of his inordinate past strength. The result of that will likely manifest itself by keeping up whatever pressure this puts on the party. They seem united in their policies. They just to have find another person in caucus to speak for the leader if he is not 'there'. So, that would not leave Ms Turmel as spokespers­on too long imo. It certainly does not negate her current position though and I think that she will manage the caucus quite nicely during the leader's absence.
