Well I wasn't invited to the Con funeral for Tim Hudak. And Stephen Harper hasn't said a word in public about his crushing defeat.
But since he sent in half his cabinet to campaign for him, and he hates the Liberals so much, I can only imagine how he must be feeling.
But don't tell that to our hapless Con media, because some of them, like his faithful fluffer John Ivison, would have us believe Boss Harper is not really mourning.
He's CELEBRATING !!!
Well at the end of this long day, I guess it's safe to say that the people of Ontario weren't too impressed with Tim Hudak's vision of the future.
They didn't like his Made in America plan to create jobs by killing them.
Or the fact he couldn't count.
And they did send him and his hideous Cons a clear and unmistakable message:
Ontario is still progressive, and so is Canada.
I guess it makes sense. Tim Hudak is incapable of coming up with an original idea, for obvious reasons.
So he is always borrowing them from others.
He borrowed his economic platform from the Koch brothers. Mike Harris' old gang is running his campaign.
And now he's clearly taken his voter suppression idea from the Harper Cons.
With just two days before the Ontario election, and still not having decided whether to vote for the NDP or the Liberals, I decided to check out the lawn signs on the island, which is part of Trinity-Spadina riding.
And the results were no surprise. The island is still mostly orange, with a touch of green. The only blue signs are the ones from the No Jets at the Toronto Island Airport campaign.
And between that and the hypnotic scent of the giant ORANGE poppies...
For a moment I thought I might be able to vote for the NDP, for sentimental reasons.
And get away with it.
It was dull grey rainy Sunday on the waterfront where I live, but at least it gave me a chance to collect my thoughts, wonder what is happening to this country I sometimes no longer recognize.
And of course try to figure out who the hell I'm going to vote for in the Ontario election.
Because with only three days to go before voters go to the polls it's crunch time in the Big O.
And it has been the weirdest election I've ever seen.
As well as the worst...
It only took about fifteen minutes of watching the Ontario leader's debate before I started to wish that I was watching something else. Anything else.
Or just lounging around with my friends on a lovely warm evening, like I suspect most people in the province were doing.
Because it was bad eh?
It was amateur hour. It was horribly mediocre. It was incredibly boring, in a painful depressing way. It was a REALLY bad movie.
OK, I might as well say it. I need an Ontario election just when it's finally starting to feel like Spring, like I need a hole in the head, or Ontario needs Tim Hudak.
Because he is a beastly Republican-style Con who would rip a hole the size of a province in this country. And along with his good buddy Stephen Harper, take us all down with him.
Or turn us into another union busting Alabama. Or Putin's Russia.
