Interesting point but, had Paul Martin focused his campaign on the
consecutive budget surplusses, falling unemployment, and a rising loonie, he probably would have won again.
Instead he chose to run a dirty campaign that rarely had anything of non-fictional value to do with Harper or anything else.
If outwitting the other parties strategists' is dirty, then the Liberals should have been around for one term only, not three.
