Good choice! Belinda Stronach was inexperienced and would have been disaster her first time in a national campaign. She should get a couple of years experience as a backbench MP in the House Of Commons or as a Cabinet Minister (if the Conservatives win) and then run for party leader. Stephen Harper is a good choice for the CP. He's strong in Western Canada and has now has the support of the majority of the party behind him. The CP is now well positioned after its leadership battle, to look forward to the federal election when it happens. Which is probably whenever Prime Minister Paul Martin and the Liberals think they have a chance to win.

"The tired, old, corrupt Liberal party is cornered like an angry rat," he said. "They are going to attack us like never before."

They're the same everywhere.

I do believe that Canadian Conservatives have a chance against the scandal-plagued Liberals now.

Go get'em, neighbor! Take no prisoners!

I confess I don't know much about this race, other than that Belinda is an heiress who hangs out with Clinton, but just from Harper's quotes, he sounds a lot more articulate than she is.

One of Clinton's ex-girlfriends (a major CINO from the old "Progressive Conservative"/Mulroney gang) has been defeated big time. Good news from above Champlain for a change.

"There's going to be a takeover," he told the 1,500 assembled party members. "The Conservatives taking over the government of Canada, that's what we're doing."

Sounds like a good plan.

This is the best news Canada has gotten in a long, LONG time. Harper is a totaly relatable, middle class guy who has a fantastic grasp of the issues and personal integrity out the wazoo. The media is now saying that a Conservative minortity government is a possibility, but I think that's a given and a MAJORITY government is within reach with this leader.

It's interesting that the timing of leadership race and the expected election has created what is esentially a Primary Race like the US has.

I've got news for all you dreamers...with the exception of Mike Harris, just about every Canadian politician has a left wing streak in them. They are all destined to continue wallowing in their self made cesspool of social engineering. I'd be suprised to see Harper not cater to the left in some way.

Very good choice.

Harper will make a fine prime minister of Canada after the upcoming Canadian election.
