1) The 'Moe' v, 'Doug' thing oughta get some traction. Pretty meme-able.
2) Tory's 'Upper Class Twit' obliviousness leaves an opening for Doug''s "Elitez is the badz" sucker-punch counter.
3) Olivia slhimmies through the middle with a Jagger at Altamont-esque "Brothers and sisters, why are we fighting?"
Just spit-tballin'

I forgot them. But still, who would the globe endorse?

Hudak.
That's a joke, sort of. A joke with an agenda. Look up the story of the Globe editorial endorsement for the recent provincial election. It is not pretty.

Thats eye opening. So its not really a simple question of who would the globe endorse, but who is the globe.

Well, in the case of the Hudak editorial, more like "who is the Globe's owner"

What was the fallout? Did the editorial board lose anyone? Will Thompson be able to be as autocratic again or has there been any sort of fix?

The fallout was egg on their face and a big fat leak to the Canadaland blog, which got lots of circulation at the time. Nothing further that I know of, though I expect some really bad blood remains internally. As for the Thomsons, they're the owners. They will always be able to do this, they probably always will do this. In short: Globe will endorse Tory no matter what.

You're not a rube, hostage. You just don't have the same reference point as some folks here. If you enjoy McLean, please continue to do so. No harm. No foul. Me? I'll spend my time elsewhere.

Thanks Cooper. Fact is I grew up on the Waltons and Little House on the Prairie. Hokey feel good stories with a morality tale worked in. I finally watched the Blindside the other day. Thats what McLean seems like to me. I have probably caught one episode a year for fifteen years by happenstance. I grew up to dig Sid Vicious and Lou Reed but yeah im still a rube. Grin

I think I will save the bubbly until we reach Thug\Fofam's last camping violation.
Yeah. There was a bit of "no one has done more for X than" reminder when I read Tory's "no other candidate has " line. Chow seemed more comfortable and livelier at that debate. Tory's biggest enemy is himself, and his tendency to implode at the 11th hour. With that being said, Chow and Tory are not really wow-ing me. Even putting personalities aside and focusing on policies, both are quite lacking IMO. I keep thinking, is this the best that TO has to offer, that can't be true.
