Three to Turf .... cont'd
In the comments, trawna defends Mario Silva:
However, re: Mario Silva, I'm involved in a community group in our hood, and he & his office have been very responsive and supportive.
That's fair ... ok, I'm taking him off my turf list. I'm gonna stay undecided 'til I've heard more about the issues.
Meanwhile, Paul has a whole site dedicated to Tony Ianno, "Canada's Laziest MP". He posted this funny quote from Urban Sherpa:
"Actually, no. We're voting for Olivia Chow. We just think it's time for some new blood in this riding ... Are you kidding me? Isn't Tony Ianno the most ineffective MP in Parliament?... No, I didn't read that in the Annex Gleaner, it was in the Globe and Mail ... Well, I don't think that Hansard Notes is totally erroneous. Okay. Merry Christmas."
The Annex Gleaner? I don't recall him receiving that criticism in the Gleaner. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you; I have a critical Ianno editorial cartoon in this week's Gleaner. If anything, Ianno has managed to fly under the radar for far too long, all things considered.
And Dave complains:
I still don't see the point of hoping for more NDP seats at the expense of the Liberals. This just makes it more likely for a Conversative win (the greater of the two evils). And Layton's management of his campaign has instilled less confidence (if possible) in my with regards to the NDP's ability to govern. What's the logic in attacking Martin (his closer idealogical ally), only to grant greater likelihood of a Conservative government and greater national instability? His poor strategy and failure to see the greater issues at hand don't convince me that he would be an effective leader on the world stage. This isn't a municiple election... (Please note, I don't think Martin is particularly charismatic, but he's the best of the three... Actually, Duceppe is the most charismatic of all, but I can't vote for him)
Well, I think the growing consensus is that a Conservative minority kept in check by a strong NDP would punish the Liberals just enough, force them to dump Martin and really clean house. That would also remind everyone why voting for the Conservatives is a bad idea so that the Liberals could form the government in the following election, forcing the Conservatives to dump Harper and really clean house.
But then, I'm an optimist. I thought the Star Wars prequels were going to be really good.
