Andrew Scheer was absent from Question Period yesterday, and nobody seemed to know where he was.
But I wouldn't be surprised if he was huddled with his ex-Rebel campaign manager Hamish Marshall trying to figure out what's going wrong.
Because so much is going wrong.
A series of devastating polls, have suggested the Cons are heading for a crushing defeat in the next election.
And a new Abacus poll can only make them feel worse.
As we all know Andrew Scheer is on a creepy crusade to destroy Justin Trudeau.
And he was counting on the federal government's carbon tax to help him do that.
The plan was he would attack the tax like a rabid hyena. Trudeau would defend it. The mob would scream for money, or blood.
Until Scheer destroyed Justin and became Prime Minister.
In fact, so confident was Scheer that he couldn't lose, that he even challenged Trudeau to "Bring it on."
Candice Bergen, the Con house leader, is one of the loudest and most vile members of Andrew Scheer's Con Clown Circus.
Her hatred for Justin Trudeau is so great it's deeply disturbing, and can only make many Canadians question whether she's losing her marbles.
So when her creepy Con leader decreed that this now dying summer should be known as Trudeau's "Summer of Failure."
Nobody could control her or hold her back.
As we all know Andrew Scheer and his ghastly Cons try to use the word "fail" as many times as possible when talking about Justin Trudeau.
In what is clearly a crude attempt to brainwash us.
Or treat us like Pavlov's dogs, who when they heard a bell started slobbering.
It's beyond belief, and this is outrageous.
For almost two days, Leona Alleslev and Andrew Scheer were the toast of Con Canada. And what a show it was.
I mean just LOOK at them. Have you ever seen two politicians fall in love so quickly? And still manage to look and sound so ridiculous
The Liberal defector made it sound like she had escaped from a prison camp in North Korea, where her opinions had been ruthlessly stifled.
While the Con media heaped praise on the failing Scheer for managing to reel in a Liberal AND a woman.
As we all know, Donald Trump's mental state is continuing to deteriorate.
He should be concerned about the aftermath of Hurricane Florence, but he's clearly more worried about Hurricane Mueller.
Those who know him claim he's desperately afraid of being humiliated, by being dragged out of the White House in handcuffs.
But if humiliation is what he fears, this should practically kill him.
It was the opening of the fall session of Parliament, and the unofficial start of the next election campaign.
And Andrew Scheer was in a triumphant mood.
He had a Liberal defector Leona Alleslev to show off.
And even though, as you can see, she didn't look too happy, the Cons were howling that it was the beginning of the end for Justin Trudeau.
And there was even a new propaganda video trying to reimagine Scheer as "strong and ready."
Until I saw her angry face on TV, with Andrew Scheer smirking in the background, I must admit I had never heard of Leona Alleslev.
So I was surprised to learn she was a Liberal MP who had just defected to the Conservatives.
Ontario MP Leona Alleslev is crossing the floor from the Liberals to join the Conservative party caucus — the first such loss for the governing party since the last election.
And the more I learned about her the more surprised I became.
I'd hate to meet Doug Ford after midnight, because as I'm sure you know, he's bestial enough in the daytime.
Crude, ignorant, demagogic, drunk with power, a bully if ever there was one. A puppet of the Harperite cult one should definitely try to avoid.
But sadly, many decent Toronto City councillors will not be able to avoid meeting the Fordzilla after midnight.
As Hurricane Florence churns across North and South Carolina, Donald Trump has more than one hurricane on his mind.
For while Florence should be occupying his limited attention span now that it's a killer.
He's also obsessed with Hurricane Maria that struck Puerto Rico last year, and that he claims hardly killed anyone.
