Scared of Mr. Dion, Are We?

It appears that Mr. Dion has the CPoC scared. They are dragging out the attack ad tactics before an election has actually been called.

Apparently, the CPoC has figured out that the public isn't buying into their sudden veneer of "green" policy, so they've decided to engage in character assassination as a preemptive measure.

Unsurprisingly, we find MP Jason Kenney right at the center of the slagging campaign:

Sources have told The Globe and Mail that MP Jason Kenney will brief the media on the content of the ads Sunday. They are expected to include television commercials, sources said.


Frankly, this just tells us a great deal about how scared the CPoC is, and how hollow their actions really are. If there was real substance (other than that which comes out of the south end of a northbound cow) to their policy they could stand on their policy.

[Update Thought]
The last time a party bearing the name "conservative" ran "attack ads" while they were in power, their caucus was reduced by Canada's voters to 2 MPs...
