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

Liberal Road Warriors handing out Tea Party-branded McNuggets to reporters on the Hypocritical Hudak bus!  Complete with sweet and (mainly) sour dipping sauce!

Here.

His morning stunt, in London, was revealing.  One, he didn’t mention immigration – meaning the issue is, indeed, hurting his Tea Party’s fortunes.  Two, he walked straight into a proverbial glass house, and started throwing stones.

Ipso facto, remember this?

That should have been my first answer to David’s first question: that real reason the Tea Party Cons are dropping, and the reason why we’re moving up, is that voters are becoming familiar with Hudak’s judgment, and they don’t like what they see.

What’s your theory?

• “[Changebook showed] a consistent pattern of misleading visual presentation in those graphs, including a lack of quantitative proportion in graph objects, mis- labeling and/or arbitrary and/or inconsistent scaling in graph axes, inadequate or incorrect sourcing, and other fundamental flaws.”
• “…not one of the 13 graphs conforms to the standards of presentation that are normally required of statistical presentations in academic and professional practice.”
• “Whatever one thinks of the changebook’s policy proposals themselves (and those proposals, per se, are not the subject of this commentary), the consistently misleading and inaccurate statistical representations contained in the changebook are lamentable.”

“Meanwhile, some PC insiders complain Hudak has badly misplayed the issue, falling into an obvious Liberal trap.

Some believe the reverse head tax was just a ruse intended to trick the Tories into criticizing immigrants so they could be denounced by the media in immigrant-heavy cities.”

It’s reach for the Topp!

Monday’s news wasn’t really news — veteran NDP backroom guy Brian Topp has finally revealed what pretty much everyone already knew: He covets the New Democrat leadership, and will formally seek it. Around Ottawa, it’s been an open secret almost from the moment of Jack Layton’s sad passing.

While not news, Topp’s ambition does provide us all with an unprecedented opportunity to have fun with words.

When we meet his family, will the event be hailed as “Pop of the Topps”? Is Brian at the Topp of the leadership pack? Will he now claim to be a Topp-drawer candidate?

Anyway, you get the idea. It’ll be fun for headline-writers, but possibly not Brian Topp.

…by a reporter who joined his bus today:

Instead, he talked about “Bob” and “Jim”, two life-size posters of forestry workers. It was an attempt to illustrate the supposed unfairness of the immigrant workers tax credit, but mostly backfired as the stand-up cardboard figures eminated more charisma than the Tory leader.
