Bob Rae Nickname Contest

I feel as though Bob Rae, for all his long dark history in Canadian and Ontario politics, that a definitive nickname has never really stuck. Iggy is such a fun sounding moniker that it has come to define him. I got a kick out of the Prince of Prorogation a few months ago, but it doesn't roll off the tongue like Iggy pop. If I had to guess the most common moniker Bob has heard in his life would be "hey jackass"! I am interested to collect your suggestions for nicknames for Bob Rae. Thus far my own nominations are:

1) Bobby Marx
2) Darth Raeder
3) Rae of Plight
4) Raedon
5) Bob Wiley

  6. I kinda like Sideshow Bob. He's a has-been who cannot get over the fact that he is no longer the main attraction. As such, his antics have a tendency to make the "star" (aka Iggy) look foolish.

    And......isn't he a clown from the Simpsons? A perfect fit! :-)
