I don't particularily care much for these debates, as my vote lands squarely on a party that won't fuck my world over. Paul Martin, as I've said before, really isn't apt for the job. He's made that quite clear since he's been in office. However, with all politics, you must go with the lesser of two (or in this case 4+) evils.

The conservatives are off their rocker. I can't believe such a far right opposition can even have so much support. That being said< I figure that it has something to do with the scandel insomuch that it's similar to the "Vote-for-John-Kerry-because-he-is-not-Bush" argument. Something I can understand, but cannot endorse.

The NDP scare the living hell out of me. I'm sure Layton is a nice guy when he's not being a crazy politician, but as far as I'm concerned the NDP are taking liberalism farther then is both necessary and rational. It seems to me that their M.O. deals with critiquing everyone else and supporting referrendums to such critiques that are totally opposite to what was intended to be implimented. For example, the liberals want to ban handguns, well, the NDP say this is either a last ditch effort for votes, or something the liberals have been totally reluctant to do for the last decade. Instead, they want to ban ALL firearms. I technically agree with this however. The NDP want to make it so everyone loses the capacity to own a firearm (with the only exception those who use them to survive, ie, the far north). I however say that while no normal Tom Dick or Harry should be allowed to own a gun, military and police personalle should be able to own them. This of course doesn't solve all the problems of gun related crime, but it sure as hell breaks one of the possible avenues.

As for the Bloc... well, they're pretty self explanitory.

The liberals, while obviously in the midst of a touchy scandel, seem to have the fewest "bad" policies and the most "good" policies. I don't approve of the people in the party per se, especially how so many of them are blantant crooks. But I do approve of the policies such as Healthcare (because I, unlike many of you, don't mind to pay out a small amount for my, and my neighbour's healthcare), and Military policy. They are the most moderate of any of the other parties in the running, and since I am moderate myself, I have a bias toward these kinds of policies.
