In fact there were far more Liberals and even more Bloc Quebecois members who voted differently than their leader and if you do it on a proportional basis they were a greater percentage of NDP MPs who voted against their leader 1/19 is greater than 3/98. There are a few Conservative candidates who are for same-sex marriage, but almost all of them are in urban ridings the Tories stand no chance at winning. In my riding of Vancouver Centre, the Conservative candidate is for same-sex marriage (Considering the large gay population I don't think there are very many people who do oppose gay marriage in my riding), but the Tories stand no chance at winning.Monkey Loves to Fighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122291567543761919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12848642.post-1134493106792459532005-12-13T12:58:00.000-04:002005-12-13T12:58:00.000-04:00Good thougts.

"Personal accounts" for social security instead of "private accounts". <BR/><BR/>Ethical, maybe, maybe not. But, it's great politics. <BR/><BR/>Looks like the C's are paying attention to the GOP (big surprise), I wish the Democrats and the Liberals would be more careful with their language choices. <BR/><BR/>A.L.A.L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07730923952281682355noreply@blogger.com
