Ya gotta pretend to be a team player or you'll get nowhere these days.<br /><br />Trudeau did the same - a rabid socialist pretending to be kinda conservative till he got control then put the hammer down.<br /><br />Who knows how Abbot will turn out but he is by far the best of a bad lot.<br /><br />Yah I did recommend progressives try a take back of the BCLiberal party. Looks like that effort is underway.<br /><br />You should read Mein Kampf before espousing the Falcon alternative then think Falcon instead of Eagle.sethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-24132653126187848852011-02-22T17:25:32.578-08:002011-02-22T17:25:32.578-08:00One thing we don't have that the financially a...One thing we don't have that the financially abused Egyptians have is starvation.

I see none of them any different than he is. We will just trade one tyrant for another. Campbell's corrupt sale of the BCR, is the most sleazy, corrupt event in Canadian history. All the big smiles and saying, we are exonerated?? Exonerated my ass, they still stink. Campbell will still be bossing the job.

The regime can order the bully to ACT all nice and warm and fuzzy. Dress her up in her baby pink, don't know if that is any better than black and blue, I'm sure she never changes her clothes. That will be difficult for the loud mouth but she will follow orders and if that doesn't work so good the corporate regime will order a provincial election sooner rather than later....also rigged.<br />People, keep your eye on the ball. It really doesn't matter who the regime picks, they will simply follow orders from....the regime.<br /><br />REVOLT NOW....<br /><br />GO HORGAN GO!jaydeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13897581398617875658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-67635787570102469252011-02-22T12:55:57.279-08:002011-02-22T12:55:57.279-08:00One more thing Seth....

Remember this part of the voting system passed with a relatively small margin, unlike the weighted system. It also seems to be a foregone conclusion that Mike deJong is likely to be the low man on the totem pole after round one. His second place votes will be spread amongst Abbott, Clark and Falcon. If none of the three gets the required number of votes to determine a winner, it could get very interesting, and possibly embarassing for the party. What if the majority of the voters that chose Abbott, Clark or Falcon as their first choice decided to name deJong as their second choice, so as to not hinder their preferred candidate's chances, and declined to make a third and fourth choice? By my calculations, there is a possibility that none of the candidates could reach the magic number to claim victory. It most likely will not happen, but there is the potential. Would they then have to hold another vote? Would they declare the candidate with the most points the victor even though no one met the threshhold or fudge the results to make it look as if the system worked as designed? And most important of all, how would they spin the fact that they came up with a flawed system to choose BC's next Premier?<br /><br />This Saturday could well provide a skit worthy of Saturday Night Live.<br /><br />CamCrankypantsnoreply@blogger.com
