Oh, what a crock



Oh, what a night?

The people of Toronto Centre, Willowdale, and Vancouver Quadra have voted decisively in favour of Liberal Party Leader Stéphane Dion’s vision for Canada.

Hardly. The two Toronto ridings were certainly not going to go Conservative with those 'star' Liberal candidates that were 'carefully' hand picked from the Liberal 'great leader'. Vancouver Quandra, a riding that is usually a liberal stronghold winning by thousands of votes, the Liberal candidate won by 151 votes. If that's what 'decisive' is, then I guess Rick Mercer is right, "Liberals: We're adaptable."

We can all be assured that tonight’s successes show Canadians that the Liberal Party is primed and ready for whenever a Federal election is called.

Ahahahahhaha. "whenever" an election is called. We have fixed election dates, so unless Stephane is pressured enough to step down as leader, we won't see an election until October 2009. Stephane Dion is the best thing that could have happened for Stephen Harper.

Lets not forget that the fat cat Libs owned all 4 seats.They were all Liberal seats won by the Liberals in the last election.So lets see,The Conservatives beat the hell out of the Libs in Sask.in a riding that the oh so smart-ass Dion planted his own personal pick.And in a riding in B.C.where they won by 20% over the Conservatives last election,they barely squeek out a win by less than 1% .They win 2 ridings in Ontario where a pile of **** could run and win and apparently did in one riding.They elect a man who was the worst premier Ontario ever had.LOL LOL LOL.Its so friggin funny i cant stop laughing.And to top it off we get to hear a speech from Dion on how it was the Liberals finest hour.And all the MSM liberal scumbags headline Liberal Victories,,Liberals win,,We all love the Liberals,,Maybe this will be all the Liberals needed to get them to call an election..Well here is the Headline you scumbag MSM Liberals lose 1 of their seats and nearly lose a second one to the Conservatives.A sad day for the Liberals,not a happy day.They won nothing,they retained 3 of their 4 seats.The Conservatives didnt lose a thing,they are up 1 seat this morning and guess what you MSM scumbags ,the Libs didnt win anything,as a matter of fact if you check out the number of seats now you will find that the LIbs have one less seat than yesterday.So c,mon you MSM scumbags,tell us again,what did the Libs win last night.

all i have to say is that these were by elections, shouldn't read too much into them.

Cool Blue,

Not knowing the numbers myself, I wonder about the historical numbers are about the breakdown of how many MPs have retired/stepped during each Parliament session by party.

Platty,

Very true, never thought of it like that!

Anon,

Thanks for your comment.

Justin,

Agreed, but I just get tired of how media and politicians made such a hoopla about it. Normally, by-elections barely register a bleep on the political radar. Now they're saying that this by-election was a 'big test' for Dion, when it really wasn't.

By-elections normally aren't a big deal but the fact that they were all Liberal seats and how Dion chose the candidates just gives media/critics lot to talk about :-)
