Andrew Coyne: Conservatives need rebirth before they can rebuild

[JLM]

Maybe what the Conservatives should is just hang tight and wait for a Liberal collapse. I'd guess there's a 50/50 chance of it happening and by that time maybe not too much tweaking will be required. It would probably be a waste of time for them to do anything for at least two years. Trudeau has momentum right now, not to mention quite a bit of support.

In a Democracy like Canada that is your perfect right....................................not sure how we'll afford them. Are you talking Federal or Provincial?

Provincially. It will be a long time, if ever that the Green party governs Canada. I figure they can't do any worse here in BC than is being done by the current bunch and I have zero faith in the NDP. The Conservatives are a mix of all the people who left other parties including some that would identify more as socreds and their message does nothing to enthuse me. So it's the Greenies for me especially now that we really don't need the Marijuana party. ;-)

Hanging tight is not an option. The party has 4 years in which to reprogram itself and that is exactly what it should be doing. Reaching out to us 'grass-roots' folks to see what we may have to say about the direction it should be taking.

No, he doesn't.

Yes, he does.

A nut case of the first water!

Can't totally agree, Mowich! Perhaps the two years I suggested is a bit long, but don't you think they have to wait and see what the enemy looks like?

CB supports the CPC and pretends he doesn't in an obvious ploy to appear neutral.

I could potentially vote for Colpy. Not sure if CDNbear identifies as conservative exactly but I could vote for him too. But yeah overall, not so much.

Thanks, I'm not. Your confusion is understandable though.

No, he doesn't.

Thanks Gh, but you're barking up the wrong tree trying to convince either of those ideologues.

Yes, he does.

Quick question guys, what do I do about the scuff marks I left on the hardwood floors in your heads?

Should I buff them out, or just throw a rug over them? I mean I don't mind doing either, since you gave me the space for free and all.
