I can see Greg Fry's point - Donna Barnett could have taken the time to be crystal clear that she will not, under any circumstances, run for the BC Conserative Party in 2013, one could wonder if Donna Barnett is leaving her options open, in case the BC Liberal Party fortunes go further south. This was not, in my view, Donna's best statement on her political plans in next year's provincial election
From the Rush:
Cariboo-Chilcotin Liberal MLA, says she still plans on running for re-election next spring.
“As of today I am running for the Liberal Party of British Columbia.”
But Barnett, who endorsed Liberal George Abbot in last years’ leadership race, didn’t rule out running under the BC Conservative banner.
“I’m not saying anything.”
In the past month five Liberal MLA’s, including Kevin Krueger, Kash Heed and David Hayer, all announced they won’t be running for re-election next year while high profile cabinet ministers Kevin Falcon and George Abbot haven’t yet made their decisions.
The question has taken on more relevance this year as the party continues to languish in opinion polls.

It was a rather strange, and interesting comment to make ... and one NOT likely to sit well with Christy Clark. I wonder what the fall-out from this will be?
