could they possibly spend a bit more time at the university? go grass roots.
An observation: Recent Gregg poll puts the Libs at 35% and the Conservatives at 31%, despite the fact that the Libs are still at least moderately in disarray and certainly have no platform to speak of. Once they put together a bit of a platform and start getting organized, the conservatives are in real trouble. Hint: don't expect Mark Marissen to deliver on the organization.
Before moving on to policy consultation, perhaps Bob Rae can let us know how he plans to take care of his $800K Debt from his leadership run. More things change, the more they stay the same.....I remember Ontario.

More importantly, how is the Liberal Party going to pay back the money owed to taxpayers they stole during Adscam?
