Just saw some nasty Con attack ads
Went something along the lines of "Iggy lived in the US, therefore he's not a real Canadian."


Ugh.

1. God...I hope the Liberals will be smart enough to counter with
ads showing Harper speaking before American right wing groups calling Canada a "failed socialist state and proud of it" and his appearance on Fox TV when he was opposition leader, apologizing for Canada not joining in the Iraq war. They have more ammunition to use against him than he has against Ignetieff.

2. I heard he spent 20 of the 25 years abroad in the UK.
Whatever. Just what is the Conservative/Reform parties problem with people who spend time abroad. Are they afraid that they may learn things they wouldn't have been able to do so here?

5. LOL, I see they are following the rabid right-wing repub playbook....
ala "Obama is not American". I suspect they will be as successful with this as the nuts south of the border has been with their nonsense.

6. They're airing some incredibly stupid anti-NDP ones in NS
About three an hour on the radio, one set of which pretty much claim the NDP will tax life itself, and the other of which says that you aren't really voting for the NDP but the evil union bosses who secretly run them.

They aren't even trying to sound reasonable, which is sad considering everyone was on the high ground when the campaign started.
