I think that Hudak, or whoever is the next leader of the provincial Tories, faces a very real existential crisis concerning whether the party is tenable without the kind of voters Hillier et al represent. <br /><br />I don't know that marginalizing the OLA, like Steve Clark did to secure his nomination in Leeds-Grenville, is a strategy for long-term success. Likely, however, neither is allowing people such as Clark and Sterling to be pushed out of office.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10983304366242385974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-52421734612135969162010-12-03T15:48:44.577-05:002010-12-03T15:48:44.577-05:00"The only individual with the capacity to dri...<i>"The only individual with the capacity to drive the red tories out, is Randy Hillier."</i><br /><br />Indeed. That would be such a smart move. Drive me, and over 90% of the party away and turn the PCPO into the Ontario wing of the Tea Party. Dalton McGuinty will be premier for the next 100 years.<br /><br />I'm still holding out hope that maybe Elizabeth Witmer could be somehow convinced to run for the leadership once Hudak looses in 2011. Then we can rid of the clowns like Hillier and become a serious party again.Tof KWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756310841374198056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-22632738123683026502010-12-03T10:39:05.555-05:002010-12-03T10:39:05.555-05:00Yeah and they wonder why you hold you nose and vot...Yeah and they wonder why you hold you nose and vote Liberal. That's a great idea, drive out the red Tories, if you want to downgraded to third party status.gingercathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11691556092241803831noreply@blogger.com
