Mr. Ziffy Irrelevant?

Kelly McParland has a good piece about on Mr. Ziffy called Michael Who?

The leader of the Liberal party isn't just unpopular. He's also increasingly irrelevant

  You're the leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. You have been leader for well over a year. Your party has just spent the winter portraying the government and Prime Minister as willing -- even eager -- accomplices in the torture of foreign combatants, enemies of women, keepers of a secret agenda that opposes abortion rights and discriminates against impoverished women in developing countries.

 You have argued ceaselessly that the government is obsessed with secrecy, is deliberately hiding critical documents from public scrutiny and is increasingly contemptuous of Parliament. You've hounded the Prime Minister into firing a troublesome minister whose antics raised serious questions about the way business gets done in Ottawa. The country has just gone through one of the most frightening economic periods in a generation, a situation that invariably reflects badly on the government of the day.

Yet an opinion poll finds that, given a choice, voters would pick almost anyone else, including the target of all your party's scorn, as Prime Minister. Far from making inroads against a government faced with any number of challenges, you place dead last when Canadians are asked to identify their favourite leader.

Mr. Ziffy's personal numbers are atrocious.

A Canadian Press/Harris-Decima survey found 52% of those questioned had a negative impression of him, against 26% with a positive impression, leaving him with a net score of minus-26.

 Today also has the CBC's Liberal friendly pollster, Frank Graves, Ekos putting  the Liberals down from their last poll at 25.1, CPC, up to 34.4, NDP, 15.3, Greens, 12.0. 

Wow, those numbers for the Libs are at Dion numbers! He must be somewhere smiling.
Seems like Mr. Ziffy is just not turning the public on.  The culture war, that Graves was advocating (abortion, guns, secrecy, the whole hidden agenda etc.) doesn't seem to be working. Smearing first a former Minister, then the PM and our brave troops in Afghanistan, with the help of the Lame Stream Media hasn't helped either.The more the Libs and their media wage the culture war and demeaning our troops trying to accuse them of "war crimes" the lower the numbers go for Mr. Ziffy and his Libs. It just helps the CPC. 

That old culture war to try and scare people, Canadians aren't buying it anymore.  The CPC has been in office now for four years and everything the Libs said before that the CPC would implement hasn't come to fruition, you know, soldiers in the streets with guns, women would have to go back to the kitchen and they would have to resort backstreet abortions, Harper would make everyone go to church every Sunday, etc.

 Liberals don't know who they are, what they stand for, all they have is faux scandals, smears, and a friendly media who are only too happy to help them along with the smears and faux scandals and cover for them.  Example, Rahim/Guergis vs Pablo   Keep it up Libs and media, it's good for the Conservatives, it just drives more support toward them and away from you!  Could Janie Krieber, Stephane Dion's wife be right?
