Perhaps the only clear conclusion we can draw … is that Canadians have no party which would come even close to achieving a plausible mandate from an ever more disgruntled and fragmented electorate.” <br /><br />http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/tory-descent-continues-in-strange-new-political-world-poll/article1607251/<br /><br /><br />What I do remember as I mentioned once before, is a time when the Billion dollar security boondoggle would have likely resulted in a no confidence move by the opposition. Apparently it's not that important to Deputy Prime Minister Iggnatieff though.Okienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-35200076968386038522010-06-18T07:29:18.221-07:002010-06-18T07:29:18.221-07:00Okie, I don't know.

That said, I cannot recall a time when the public was so put off by the overall political leadership as today.<br /><br />One thing that must be said for Harper is that, even in these doldrums, he constantly searches for, and finds, the opportunities meagre as they may be. Contrast that with Mr. Out to Lunch.<br /><br />CRF, this ought to be the LPC's golden moment. This is where the opposition should be charging straight through the open door of voter discontent. Iggy, I fear, is damaged goods. He didn't defend himself against Harper when he needed to. He didn't attack Harper when he ought to have done just that. When he does unveil ideas, like his grandiose "network" foreign policy, it's so ethereal that the average voter can't begin to grasp what he's getting at. He's not teaching graduate students and the public won't have a politician who speaks down to them.<br /><br />He may be a grand academic but he's an incompetent politician.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-43912855817659548632010-06-17T19:28:49.528-07:002010-06-17T19:28:49.528-07:00There is still, utterly improbably, an opening Ign...There is still, utterly improbably, an opening Ignatieff.
