Really, Tories. Exactly how dumb are ya!
This honeymoon was pretty short.

[HEyHEY]

1. I think they are all pretty dumb

I think many who voted conservative voted that way to make sure alliance MPs didn't get in their ridings. Now, those seats will be lost to Liberals. HAHA.

And does it really matter who runs the CA? They are such a bunch of uncharaismatic phonies that it doesn't matter.

2. On second thoughts - this could kill their merger

If there's any hint of a deal between Harris and Harper for Harris not to run and Harper to win, what's in it for the PC's. I'm beginning to think this won't happen.

[HEyHEY]

3. I think the PCs

Are just hoping to hell that they can get some more seats outta this no matter what happens.

5. The only reason they're in this is that they're flat broke.

Just follow the money!

4. But Alliance supporters are snapping up PC memberships

apparently, to sway the vote in favour of union.

Definitely a hostile takeover. Where are the progressive conservatives going to go?

[HEyHEY]

6. wither and die

I imagine even if this does go through there will be a rebirth of a new party.

7. Politics, like nature, abhors a vacuum.
