Gimbol's diatribe and screed

Its about policy

This is just to clear one misconception up.

The current troubles the liberals are facing isn't so much about Dion, he's the symptom.

Its about policy, you have none. Or at least none other than power at all costs and being the natural governing party.

As long as you tenacously cling to the first you will be ineffective in oppostion.

And because of the second you will now do everything to avoid an election including abandoning any principle you may have had or said you had.

Now the chickens come home to roost.

When you have no policy, no leader, and there is no issue you will go to the mat on, you basically have no reason for existence other than just another lobby group on Parliament Hill.

So here's some advise....

-1- Get rid of the delegated process of chosing your leader
-2- Policy, get some and then stand by them, no matter what.
-3- Ditch the "establishment" from the party, these guys are about power (see one and two).
-4- Move into the present, its not 1967 anymore.

but you won't listen, so look forward to many more conservative governments in the future.

The other choice is to pull the plug and leave Dion's legacy as the last liberal leader.
