Just Watch Dion Win The Next Election

Ever since Dion has assumed the Liberal Leadership, the Conservatives have been in attack mode. They spend more time in question period talking about what the Liberals didn’t do than they spend talking about what their government is doing. This strategy would work well against certain leaders, but in the long run, I am convinced that Dion’s personality will have the better of it.

Now, let me explain myself.

Nobody has ever questioned Stéphane Dion’s courage and integrity, and by doing just that, the Conservatives are making themselves look like sleazy politicians. Though their attacks will pay off in the short term, the Conservatives are unintentionally creating a “moral gap” between Dion and Harper.

This may take some time, but a year from now, I think Canadians will be more inclined to trust the principled professor who stuck to his game plan despite continuous attacks, than the sly politician who’s sole desire seems to be winning a majority.
