The voter response (as poor as it was) showed that Canadians do not feel he has what it takes to be a leader. Sadly.. I think we are still lacking a strong leader... but it is what it is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-44738320657990237452008-10-22T15:57:00.000-07:002008-10-22T15:57:00.000-07:00Susan, I'm pretty sure Dion would be ousted by his...Susan, I'm pretty sure Dion would be ousted by his own party if he didn't step down on his own accord. I think the Liberals may have come in with a stronger leader. Not that I really care, either.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688789215548531800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-22786999647713511972008-10-21T13:34:00.000-07:002008-10-21T13:34:00.000-07:00Down here all politicians act like children and an...Down here all politicians act like children and and there are some we wish would quit but they just keep on trying but they never do and then there are others who try before they should. I think you have a better system than we do. We have pretty much just a two party system---I know they say we have a third party--then Independent but many times they can not even get on the ballot.<BR/><BR/>I am just ready for the election to be over with so I will not have to see such nasty ads.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288211825926082277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-71815427403419483732008-10-21T01:11:00.000-07:002008-10-21T01:11:00.000-07:00OH Dear, what have I started?

As you know, I am fairly ambivilant about politics. I dont care for any of the polititians that ran. To be quite honest, I voted for who my husband was voting for! So I really was not making a political statement here. <BR/>I am talking about integrity in leadership. That goes the same in politics as it does at your school PTA group, the ladies weekly bible study or the local pie makers association. Any one who quits, because they only made runner up, and not the top dawg, is a looser for sure in my books. I would have writen the same post if Harper had done the same thing.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187066038297018869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-44639387923803721022008-10-21T00:04:00.000-07:002008-10-21T00:04:00.000-07:00For people from other countries reading Susans blo...For people from other countries reading Susans blog, our elections are by written ballot with a mark against the candidate of choice, all the votes are counted by hand. I worked at the election, My poll booth list of voters had about 450 names and 260 voted, we sent the result of our poll to the returning officer who adds all the polls to find the winner for our area. No electronic voting in Canada, I think a much fairer way than another country that is facing elections at the momentOuthouse Capital of Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291818383230828720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18841079.post-11082059387559446302008-10-20T23:55:00.000-07:002008-10-20T23:55:00.000-07:00Back at the Liberal convention when Dion got the L...Back at the Liberal convention when Dion got the Liberal nod, The Tories planted people in the convention as liberal supporters who voted for Dion, knowing him to be the one person Harper could beat.<BR/>Also, the media have also killed Dion with criticism and never touch Harper.<BR/>I am pleased Harper still has a minority and cant push a hidden agenda.<BR/>But lets not make this Political.Outhouse Capital of Canadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291818383230828720noreply@blogger.com
