Attacking the attack ads

Despite having a wealth of material to work with, the Nepean-Carleton Libs have served up two poorly written, text-rich attemps on their web site: This one is every so slightly better, just because it focuses on a single Poilevre "moment" rather than try to tackle everything, but it still brings on a bit of a yawn: This one, which ran in the Nepean Weekender this weekend, is actually pretty good:

• it's brief
• features a large photo of Baird's annoying face
• it doesn't actually mention David Pratt's name (or even the Liberals), probably a good idea, all things considered!

I was against snap elections before I was for them

"Fixed dates stop leaders from trying to manipulate the calendar. They level the playing field for all parties... Hopefully, in the next election, we can run on our record and we won't need the manipulation of the electoral calendar." - Stephen Harper, May 26, 2006
