Canadians Reject Dion as PM Material: Poll


Poor Stephane Dion. Can't screw in a lightbulb. Can't manage his finances. Wife picks out his underwear. All according to his wife- scroll down a couple of posts to see the proof!
And he nevertheless thinks he can be Prime Minister of Canada?
Well, by and large, Canadians don't think so.
I note also that the poll was conducted by the "Strategic Counsel", a polling firm I consider to be Liberal-friendly/Conservative-unfriendly. So this clearly isn't a case of some anti-Liberal trying to make poor little Stephanie look pathetically, pitifully poofterly or something like that. (Unless there's an anti-Dion movement currently gathering momentum and influencing Liberal-friendly organizations into joining the leadership war, not that I'm pointing any fingers at anyone in particular!)
So... the question is: If Canadians who don't bother properly inform themselves about the reality of their nation's political situation and its players can be persuaded (or, rather, manipulated into believing) by the Liberals and the Liberal-friendly mainstream media that the current government isn't something they want, who, then, could they vote for? Apparently not Stephane Dion/Liberal Party. Surely not the communistic, Dhimmi-appeasenik "Taliban Jack" Layton of the NDP and fuggedabout Greenie head Lizzy May. Duceppe of the Bloc? Not even a factor nationally.
So... no government will ever or could ever be perfect. No government will ever please everyone all the time. But as far as I can see, the Conservative government under the immensely capable and supremely intelligent Stephen Harper deserves my... and your... vote.
