The age of the goddam teleprompter politician. These leadership debates are so scripted, so aimed at market based research that they might as well just read right from pre-prepared notes and leave.
This is a joke.
Show some goddam leadership. Somebody, please. Show emotion, embrace it and speak with passion. Speak from the heart every now and then. Give us an idea or sentiment that isn't rehearsed or memorized.
What the hell is wrong with showing you care about something? I watch these party "leaders" smiling, throwing softballs at each other and all are terrified to show some emotion. Are they afraid they will be perceived as weak? Do they think the vox populi will reject them because they care too much? You're not a loose cannon if you some some passion, when the occasion calls for it.
I'll go on record..I like Harper. But for crying out loud Stephen, get angry every now and then. Show some kick ass leader type passion. I am not saying you have to punch out Jack Layton, but for Gosh sakes, go for the jugular instead of sitting there with a smirk on your face. It makes you look weak..and I don't think you are.
The one I have the most respect for is Duceppe, at least he says what he feels and speaks up for the francophones. I completely disagree with his platform, but it sure would be nice if someone felt as passionate about English Canada.
Somebody, please, convince me that you can and want to lead this great Country.
Stop trying to placate the goddam media with these silly, scripted platitudes and speak to the people, because WE are the ones that vote. And WE, my fellow Canadians, are the ones that matter.
