I'm a little surprised to hear Dion musing about readmitting former Liberals disgraced in the Adscam scandal.
Very politely put, that would be a horrendous tactical error at this time.
As much as Dion is a new leader, there is still a need for him to keep his distance from that past in his party. If the "return" of these people becomes public (or public enough), as the musings are, it gives Dion's opponents a major club to beat him about with.
This particular issue is all about optics - and in this case, the optics would be horrendous.

It appears that Dion has decided that wouldn't be so wise.
