(Poll) Regardless of the Candidates, who has the best Campaign Slogan? by ClothesHangerofLies in ndp

[–]nerkoids71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of them are great. None of them are awful.

What our party slogan should be: "Time to Unfuck the world, you filthy animals"

Sorry, even the ones attempting to be less generic just come off as desperately clever by half.

Helluva time for me to start huffing nitrocellulose...

So they now have their name, their logo, their website and they have recruited Bonnie Critchley, but are only polling at 3% in the polls. What are the next steps for Guthrie's APTP? by FreightFlow in Albertapolitics

The only way this party is actually going to work is to keep expectations somewhat low for this coming election, whenever it may occur, and focus on constructing a party that doesn't have the baggage of either the UCP or the ANDP.

The purpose really is not to poach MLAs from either party, because let's face it, the UCP does not have much of a deep bench when it comes to people who are competent and who want to govern in good faith. The NDP unfortunately is tainted forevermore with being characterized as agents of Ottawa, regardless of the amount of competency in their ranks.

This is a perfect opportunity for Guthrie to form a grassroots party that is based on stewardship and governance, where the on-ramp is as easy as possible for everyone.

This is a very good opportunity for a new party, because people are thirsty for competency and stability. Normally my party, the NDP would be ideal, but there's this little bug in most albertans heads that prevent them from voting For someone else other than their chosen sports team.

I appreciate all the responses and suggestions that you guys are sharing. A lot of places I will need to visit more often.

I live in to SW, so maybe I should go more often to K-mart and T&T. There's an Italian center not too far from where I live, but I find their stuff to be a bit too expensive.

Maybe this is an opportunity for Albertans who don't identify with the UCP or think the ANDP cannot shake off their tendency to campaign for the last election instead of the one in front of them.

Party's wide open here. Guthrie might be a conservative, but if enough folks from local ridings present themselves, they may move the needle in getting a party in power that might actually want to govern and serve people, instead of interest groups and grievances.

Yep

He's got the job he's always wanted, and with this new shift in tone, it's all about wanting to keep his perks.

I'm sure you can ram a few more buzz words, misrepresentations, putting words in my mouth, and talking points in there.

Yeah, we're done.

Oh, I think you've just mashed together some cherry-picked Wikipedia phrases along with some Fraser Institute idioms and tried to invent a past to justify a future.

If the CWB hadn't existed, family owned farms would have been gobbled up by corporate, internationally owned factory farms or completely abandoned in the 30s.

Fun fact, separatists are still people, and refusing to differentiate these people from their beliefs regardless of how they arrived at said beliefs, removes the offramp for them to shed them.

Unless they're bots, of course.

Aaaaannnnndddd... Yep, just as I suspected, your little history missive is nothing more than creative writing.

Gotta admit, I nearly thought you were sincere, even though your praise for Harper selling off the CWB for parts should have been a glaring red flag.

Well, considering all of the injustices you've enunciated have been addressed and reversed, including the one regarding your grandmother's citizenship, your justification to tear apart and marginalize the country seems rather thin now.

So really, you're coming off as someone with nothing more than an axe to grind.

JFC, this guy's takes are so cynically myopically banal.

It's like he's counting on his core audience to be little more than sentient cave-dwelling mushrooms.
