Nobody, not one single person, who is not already a conservative can tell you the difference between one and the other. <br /><br />Because the membership would rather fight about non issues like these, party HQ gets a free pass to do whatever they like, or nothing at all.

Looking at the main party planks of 2007 and 2014, is the real problem not party headquarters and the people who dream up these campaigns? In both campaigns the party handed Liberals and their union soul mates sticks which could be used to beat them to death. No leader could articulate these central planks and expect to win, especially Hudak in 2014. Expressing a policy that can be characterized by the opposition as firing hundreds of citizens, is not the best route to voter approval. Hudak did the proper thing and resigned, but was this followed by significant resignation from headquarters?<br />If not, then a different face will make very little difference to these disastrous campaigns formatted by party headquarters.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442074610206099695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543717098552457095.post-16186325434465923522015-02-07T23:35:57.301-08:002015-02-07T23:35:57.301-08:001.

I had suspected that CJE's campaign was all about "cutting the rednecks off at the knees" rather than actually forming a plan to govern but I didn't know that for sure until now<br /><br />3. Nothing that Harper has done to silence the right wing of the party has softened his image. They vote for him because he is competent and because the other people he's been up against have been complete losersMr. Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319748084679909911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543717098552457095.post-87615940703889620302015-02-07T11:39:45.793-08:002015-02-07T11:39:45.793-08:00Fact is that social conservatives can't even f...Fact is that social conservatives can't even form government in ALBERTA! Harper has shown a clear path on how to form government - cut the rednecks off at the knees and let the fiscal conservatives find the right balance to govern.
