I had to chuckle at the news coverage. They said she complained that it was to be a delegated process, but then mentioned that she issued a NR the day the rules were announced talking about how they would make for an open and effective race; and mentioned how the Conservative leadership she ran for was delegated.

She denied it was because of her French, saying it was better than people thought. Then she said something in what I presume was French, which I couldn't understand. Now, I often have trouble understanding someone who's pur laine and on a roll, but understanding anglos trying to speak French is usually a breeze. Hmmmm.

To bad, though. I was sure looking forward to question period if she won.

Yeah I better get out more... I've been stuck ion the sandbox too long... (oilsands :O)... not the litter box)

So what do ya think about Belinda today ?


I thought Harper was foolish to fun her out before the vote, when she crossed the floor. However, it may turn out to be the most brilliant piece of political manoevering ever.

On thing about Belinda, at least she is out in the open, most of the wealthy people with power operate from the shadows..... It would have been easier for her to just by some candidates and sit back and do lunch wherever she wanted to be. It would be easy for her to own a half dozen ridings. And less expensive than running for election, and making a salary that is less than her allowance was when she was a teenager.....
