Meetings, Meetings

PM Harper schedules meetings with all the opposition leaders and speculation is reaching a peak that the call will happen imminently. Why the meetings - I assume it's so he can say 'I tried to work with them, but they just refuse to stop ruining parliament.'

Of course, voters won't soon forget the publishing of the conservative handbook on how to effectively disrupt meetings, committees and debate.

The Obama tidal wave on the American news channels is scaring the crap out of the charisma-vacuum that is the Conservative party. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of charisma driven politics. However the I find their realization humourous that their combined lack of charisma and lack of ability to communicate a vision leaves them exposed during an American media juggernaut. They end up looking boring and directionless, which can only help their opponents.

This promises to change on an almost hourly basis at this point, as we finally get into an election campaign, albeit for manipulative reasons, based on pretense.
