Dinning is Served

Jim Dinning has officially launched his campaign today, with a massive show of force, of 27 MLA endorsements. These MLAs have no doubt examined the candidates, their policies, and their vision for Alberta, reaching the only logical conclusion possible: supporting Jim Dinning is the only way they can ever hope to get into Cabinet.

  • So is this guy the non-seperatist? the "seperation if necessary but not necessarily seperation" guy? or the "let's build a freakin' wall" guy?

  • Zwozdesky is a disaster in Education.

    Hopefully he gets weeded out quickly no matter who gets elected.

  • This would have been far more interesting if Preston was in the race.

  • Harper winning the last election was probably the death blow to Morton.

    It's hard to run on an anti-Ottawa platform with the Tories in power and a Calgarian as Prime Minister.

  • I wouldn't count Morton out yet. He actually has a policy platform, and significant rural support.

    Dinning should be more successful than Martin because there's no significant scandals that we know of, the only person who tried to push out Klein was Olberg, and there's no credible opposition in Alberta that's ready for form a government.

    We'll see how the Alberta Alliance does in the next vote, because they have a better chance than the Liberals - under the Liberal banner - have.

  • I wouldn't count out the Alberta Liberals so quickly Sean. Taft is well respected, they have a committed membership base and they seem to be getting the message out.

  • Taft is respected, I agree. I don't mind him myself. Not sure if I'd want him as premier, but he doesn't annoy me in the same way that Nancy Betskowski or Grant Mitchell did.

    The biggest problem the Liberals have in Alberta is the Liberal name.

    Taft will never become premier as long as the name of his party is The Liberal Party of Alberta.

    Change the name, and they'll have started to climb their biggest hurdle. It's as simple as that, and Liberals in Alberta must come to terms with that.

  • The new party name should be "ACT"

    Alberta Consumers and Taxpayers.

    A constant reminder of who they serve.

    Imagine the campaign slogans and signage.

    ACT Now !!! In Your Best Interests.

    ACT Now !!! Take back your government.

    ACT Now !!! To get rid of special Interests.

    ( I've already registered the name. Call me Kevin, if you are interested )
