And since at least 40 other Cons have apparently used the services of that ghastly company we all need some answers badly. I detest dirty tricks no matter what party they come from, but coming from the Cons it is truly frightening...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-56246163073667352742011-12-18T16:37:33.734-05:002011-12-18T16:37:33.734-05:00hi anonymous...you ask a lot of good questions for...hi anonymous...you ask a lot of good questions for which I have no answers. All I know is that something about this really stinks, and I hope that some in the MSM will try to dig up the truth. I'm finding it hard to distinguish between the activities of the polling company and the hideous Con war room.<br />The destroy your opponents mantra seems awfully familiar, and the dubious activities during the Ford election campaign make me wonder what other dirty tricks may yet to be uncovered. We have truly reached the bottom of the barrel and we need some sort of inquiry...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-17079011422311136142011-12-16T19:12:15.589-05:002011-12-16T19:12:15.589-05:00Hi Simon

This is going to be a much longer four years than I ever imagined even in my most darkest of nightmaresKevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141832889857833324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-42664246138793945882011-12-16T16:21:13.157-05:002011-12-16T16:21:13.157-05:00“We’re in the business of getting Conservatives el...“We’re in the business of getting Conservatives elected and ending Liberal careers. We’re good at it.”<br /><br />Is that legal? I mean, party spending is limited under the Elections Act. Say the Conservatives go to these guys for an election and receive a service costing $100k. Then say that NDP go to these guys but are quoted the exact same service for $300k. <br /><br />Is there not a hidden subsidy here since the service and its price aren't subject to the free market? Donations of services and things other than money to political parties also need to be declared.<br /><br />First there were many incestuously close Conservative ties to this marketing group, which raised the spectre that it's nothing but an appendage of the Party and its partisan apparatus. Now the company's principal partner says straight out that they exist only to support the Conservative politburo. If they're providing Con MPs special deals with a nod and a wink, that should count against Conservative spending.<br /><br />Are there any "shadow" partners funding this organization because they've already hit their yearly political donation limit?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
