"I like Stephen, I really do, and I want to put that to rest,'' Klein said in a year-end interview with The Canadian Press. "I like some of the things that he has announced relative to this election. But I'm a realist and look at the polls.
"He's going to have problems in Central Canada, in Ontario specifically, and perhaps in Quebec where the Bloc is strong.''
It's not the first time Klein has offered his frank opinion of Harper's chances. And what he has to say contrasts sharply with the positions of other Tory premiers.(link)
Does he have no political common sense at all? You don't downplay your sides' chances of success because in the end you don't know. You don't despair in public. It's the equivalent of a general in a war saying he doesn't think his army is going to win. If you've lost faith you shouldn't contribute to other people loosing faith in other words.
Ralph, do us all a favour in this country: Stop talking.
