The main event is going to be ugly enough. Why be forced to endure the warm-ups?
Update: Count me as being one of these guys:
Some Liberals privately suspect Dion decided to stay until his successor is chosen in part because he wanted to avoid a power struggle between the Rae and Ignatieff camps over who would be interim leader.

I'm not sure that Dion's move in any way clarifies the situation.
I was winding up to say some really bad things about the party today, but then I listened to Dion talk about it and I felt a bit better (better but still angry). Dion's a good guy, a team player and a good Liberal and I don't see how it helps the Liberal cause to continue to run him down, but they still are. I think the next few months will be ugly and thankless for Dion, but I am glad he is doing it for the reasons you wrote. It sets the right example. Whether people follow the example though is a whole other issue.
