Liberals have to make In-N-Out and the Carson escort story part of the narrative

I believe that Liberals (and the other opposition parties really) must make as much hay over the most recent Conservative scandals.

What I think this means is showing up at every major CPC campaign event with some sort of In and Out banner, sign, or visible presence reminding reporters and Canadians about the alleged election fraud perpetrated in the 2006 election. You know they would do it to the Liberals if such a story existed.

I am not suggesting this be something officially sanctioned by the LPC, NDP, Greens or anyone else. Just that some committed individuals form a group (across every Province and territory) to remind voters and the media every day that the Harper Government (TM), came to power through an allegedly tainted election.

Maybe we could get t-shirts made incorporating the logoes of the CPC and the famous California based burger chain "In-N-Out Burger"? Now, of course, anyone doing this should be ever mindful of copyright laws.

I also think there must be some effort to continually remind the electorate of the VERY CLOSE connections between the Harper Government (TM), Bruce Carson and his escort fiancee. That story just oozes juicy scandal and has the kind of red-meat most casual political observers can understand. Sex, money, influence peddling and a (convicted criminal) close aide to the PM.

I listen most of the day to CFRA, and, the topic was Coalition. Until someone in the LPC defines what they will do after an election and defines it clearly the topic will not be about ethics.
David McGuinty would not answer the question in the morning slot.
Not sure why or who has thought this out, but, the election has not even been called yet and the main question is "coalition",

I don't think the main question is "coalition" as you put it.

I believe the media will begin to see through the conservative use of "coalition" as a deflection from ethics, secrecy and the erosion of democracy.
