Felt like re-posting it.  Here it is.

Jason is Tim Hudak’s legislative director, and one of his main spokespeople.  Can anyone tell me what he is saying/implying about Jim, who has been one of my best friends for 30 years?

Fratboy Tim had a “tough on crime” stunt this morning in Leamington. Here’s what he didn’t talk about. It’s his real crime plan.

Somewhere, Benedict Baldy is pausing to reflect, this morning.

What’s it all mean, Virginia? It means he’s in trouble. In urban centres – Toronto, obviously, but also Ottawa, Hamilton, London, Windsor and so on – his anti-“foreigner” nativism has hurt him, big time. He’s moved off of that, and now he’s going to start targeting Horwath. She’s in his rear view mirror, and closer than he’d like.

Andrea Horwath ordered her candidates to stop trading on Jack Layton’s name. Good for her. That was the right thing to do.

And then, tonight, here was Cheri Di Novo on TVO, wearing a Jack Layton button. I guess she didn’t get the message.

We’re having an okay couple of days.  So what does some right-wing asshole do?  He/she puts a piece of personalized hate mail in my mother’s mailbox.  She lives alone, in another city, and is near 80.  She called me, and she was upset.

So…we’re putting up security cameras at her place, now.  But – here’s a promise – if you go back, tough guy, I’m going to put you through a meat grinder, I swear to God.

That’s a promise.

Wooot!

Now, back to work.

TORONTO – On the heels of an election poll that put the Liberals and Progressive Conservatives in a dead heat, exclusive new numbers suggest voters feel Dalton McGuinty would make the best Premier of Ontario.

An Ipsos Reid poll done for Global News found that four in ten (39%) voters believe McGuinty would make the best provincial leader, compared to only 31 per cent for PC Leader Tim Hudak. Twenty per cent of those polled said NDP leader Andrea Horwath would do the best job, while 10 per cent aren’t sure.

Perhaps even more telling is that almost two-thirds (63%) believe the province is now on the right track, a jump of 12 points in only one month.

Liberals say ‘red’ Tories angry with Hudak and moving to them for Oct. 6 vote

CHATHAM, Ont. – A week after the Ontario election campaign began with an embarrassing leak of the Liberal platform, the Liberals are turning the tables on the Progressive Conservatives.

Just as PC Leader Tim Hudak was about to hold a campaign event today to attack the government over the eHealth scandal, someone gave all of the party’s background materials to the Liberals.

A copy of the documents obtained by The Canadian Press shows the Liberals were given Hudak’s speech, his talking points, the questions he could expect from the media along with scripted answers, plus so-called ”proof points” to show how the Liberals have wasted money.

The Liberals say the leaked materials could only have come from a top Tory strategist because rank and file party workers would not have access to such important briefing papers.

A Liberal source says many so-called red Tories are unhappy with the direction of Hudak’s campaign and are now reaching out to the Grits.

The Tories laughed off the supposed leak, saying they intentionally distribute their messages widely and wouldn’t be surprised if the Liberals were on their distribution list.

The Liberals say Hudak has been having a rough week after criticizing them for favouring what he calls ”foreign workers” with a tax credit to help professionals educated in other countries land their first job in Canada.

You have to turn up the volume a bit, but his discomfort is pretty easy to see.
