People sometimes comment here, or tell me in private, that I'm too critical of the Conservatives. One of my hobby horses has been to complain about the lack of professionalism in the party's communications shop. Don't get me wrong: some very good people work there. I know some of them and like them. But to beat the Liberals with this country's blatant anti-conservative media bias, the Tories need not only be as good as the Grits with PR: they need to be better.
Right now, they are worse.
Interesting discussion going on here about Geoff Norquay, the party's senior spokesman. Nice man, no question. But he just doesn't measure up to Scott Reid. Read some of the comments -- and keep in mind these posters are by-and-large die-hard Tory partisans.
(Hat tip: my mom.)
