The latest Strategic Counsel\/CTV\/Globe poll<\/a> raises some interesting questions – the most prominent being “why was this poll <\/em>released<\/em><\/a>?”. Here are the not-at-all-surprising Quebec splits:<\/p>\n

Greens 26%
Liberals 24%
Bloc 22%
CPC 17%
NDP 12%<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, if we take these numbers at face value (ha ha…well, at least play along<\/em>), there is only one conclusion to be reached: Quebecers, after flirting with Harper<\/a>, Layton<\/a>, and Ignatieff<\/a>, have now fallen head over heels for Elizabeth May.<\/p>\n

Therefore, in the interests of helping the Liberal Party out in Quebec, I have taken the liberty of drafting some attack lines, which could easily be turned into LPC commercials. If we act now, we may be able to stave off this Green menace!<\/p>\n

Le Parti Vert – s\u00e9rieusement<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Elizabeth May: Closet Bruins fan<\/p>\n

A vote for the Greens is a vote for the tax-on-everything<\/p>\n

Elizabeth May: Fraude<\/em><\/p>\n

I hate anyone who’s ever owned a pony<\/a>. Don’t you<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Elizabeth May: Can you really trust someone who rides a tricycle<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Elizabeth May: Can you really trust someone who liked Stephane Dion as much as she did?<\/p>\n

Because caring about the environment is, like, so<\/em> 2007<\/p>\n
