He said he's going to CUT welfare during a debate.
Still this day I can't believe he even got elected. Also, we have the largest teacher strike in history. What did he do? He stood firm and still got elected.
The poll also suggests that a more 'moderate' (read: liberal) leader would not really change the polling numbers at all. It wouldn't matter if it was Stephen Harper, Peter Mackay, Bernard Lord, Stockwell Day or George W. Bush leading the party, it would still be too "scary" for the MSM and their liberal supporters. We need to win from the right.
Hey! Thanks for posting the CSR! I lost my copy a few years ago, and it was The Reason I got involved in politics!
Bah! It's gone!!!! *crying*
Good for him. We need to be more like the Ayn Randers who never apologize for fiscal conservatism. Challenge the reality of the welfare state.
