Conservative Interim Leader

Who will be the interim leader of the federal Conservative party while the next permanent leader is chosen?
Rob Nicholson: 17%
Peter Van Loan: 17%
Tony Clement: 13%
Rona Ambrose: 13%
Someone Else: 40%

As a result of the federal election, Stephen Harper has resigned as Conservative Party leader, and asked for an interim leader to be chosen (see story here).  In this sort of situation, the interim leader is usually a senior figure within the party who is not seen as a likely permanent leadership candidate.  Rob Nicholson or Peter Van Loan seem to fit that bill nicely.  Tony Clement or Rona Ambrose are other possibilities.
