I got an automated polling call last night and out of curiosity listened to it all the way through.
It very quickly became clear I was probably listening to a Wildrose Party push poll with lots of questions like “If you knew that PC leader Allison Redford supported the Liberal daycare plan of Paul Martin and opposed Stephen Harper’s parental credit alternative and hired a campaign managr who didn’t pay his debts would you be more or less likely to support her?”
They are going to harp on inneuendo and the vaguely moderate to liberal positions Redford has or on a small number of issues and try to ride them into the legislature, but as I’ve said before, I think they over-estimate just how right wing Albertans really are.
Keep harping that she’s basically a moderate conservative with some slightly progressive positions on childcare, healthcare and education and they may just cede the whole race to her.
