I'm Going to Have an Episode
Conservative strategies from across the board.
How could any opponent let the aristocratic ancestry, Upper Canada College, Harvard, and home in Provence mother lode go untapped?
Ignatieff is in his element in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal, giving lengthy introspective interviews to elite journalists, winning the daily debating society event called Question Period, holding forth in front of adoring university students, supplying pithy comments in both languages for the cameras and hosting wine and cheese gatherings with fellow MPs.
Perhaps arising out of his years abroad, Ignatieff’s highly developed self image and lack of self doubt are very un-Canadian. It’s possible that the Conservatives need do nothing. At some point Canadians will resent his sense of destiny and want to prick his bubble.
Guilty as charged!
Good lord… somebody do something…
