I did not attend the candidate nominating meeting, somehow that Sunday evening meeting around the corner just flew out of my head, therefore, I almost feel guilty to utter an opinion! Then, I read in the paper who got nominated (OMG!) and elected (OOOHMG!!!) will not say his name....
Here I am a card holding Liberal. A die hard Liberal. One, that has been asked to run for MP many years ago, when we were in office... when we were still a respected bunch (if not for Alberta!)... Now, facing a crucial election with a wonderfully worldly, charming intellectual as Mr Ignatieff at the helm and, a White Rock-South Surrey candidate, none of which I feel could/would hold the job.
One, because does not know how to be a leader/is not a leader - one is born into that sort of thing... (Or, bluffs or bullies his way into it, as Harper did.)
The other, well... from personal experience in a committee/public setting (I had to remove myself from due to his unacceptable behavior) I concluded - he - was a barbarian.
Most certainly, not the one to represent me - or anyone else - god forbid!
So, to add further distress to the ongoing dilemma is this... when I volunteer on voting day at the polling station, do I kill myself first?

So much nicer in bloglandia!
Friends of mine in Canada were mentioning this election--I hoep the outcome for you is better than it has been, in a similar case, in my home state.
Not really my dear, we got the same as before.
However, Harper's popularity overall isn't good ad with his arrogance he won;t be able to contain during these next four years - assures us of a monumental, resounding change to come.
We are (have to move towards social democracy, particularly now that we have managed to kill the liberal party...
Remember my prediction.
I am hoping for a model similar of that of Holland - it need time to ripen.
