Paul "The Strikeout" Martin?
I'll admit that my confidence in the current PM has been shaken greatly since the fall of 2003, but I certainly wouldn't make the same error in judgment made by Brian Mulroney. Seems that in the new book (you know the one) he referred to the "young Paul Martin" as a "strikeout" that didn't have much talent when it came to leadership (resisting temptation, resisting temptation) and that John Turner was the best of the bunch. I'll give Mulroney a little slack, the comment was made in the early 1990s, but this is just one more example of him missing the boat pretty dramatically.
