Sunday, November 26
I forgot to mention in my post of yesterday that I checked the credentials of the Honourable Don Getty for the vote yesterday. He was very classy, quite the gentleman.
Morning thought: If Ed makes it either first or second on the next ballot, regardless if it is Morton or Dinning who comes in first, the second choice of who drops off will be Ed. It is within the realm of possibility that the only way Jim will meet his ambition is to come in with 50% + 1 on the second ballot, which won't be easy.

Yea, it would be tough for Stelmach to pull that off though. He has alot of ground to make up just to pull even with either of the other candidates.

The race for the leadership of the Alberta PCs is now just that, a sprint to the finish. And after Saturday's vote, the choices have solidified somewhat.
We can either choose the candidate of the status quo, the candidate who surrounded himself with the usual well-heeled, backroom and corporate insiders who will stay the current course.
Or we can opt for the candidate of the past we never had, the candidate who curries favour only with those who thinks as he does that we should become narrow-minded, inward and isolated from the any influences he deems are dangerous or troublesome.
But there is clearly now a third option.
Ed Stelmach represents all that is good about all of Alberta and all Albertans -- rural and urban; newcomers to Wild Rose Country and those descendants of our proud pioneer heritage; those enjoying the benefits of the Alberta Advantage and those still struggling to take their place.
Ed has taken the time to look at all the issues -- economic, social and political. He knows Alberta's future promise rides not on defining winners and losers, insiders and outsiders, who's for us or against us, but rather on what unites us all in a diverse, modern province and what makes us stronger.

Icerider - you have decribed Ed Stelmach's appeal to a "T".
More Alberta - Less Morton
