Another blow to the BC Liberals:

Poll shows Christy Clark tied for least popular premier in Canada | Globalnews.ca

I think one of the worse things that Clark ever did was delay the election. IIRC, during her run for the Liberal leadership, she said that she would call an election almost immediately. Here we are sitting TWO YEARS later and we finally get an election. I honestly believe that if she had called the election sooner, the party would have had a chance....or at the very least, the NDP would be in a minority gov't position. I have literally felt like her puppet in her politicking in the last 2 years.

Yes, the NDP is not the be-all end-all and Adrian Dix is night riding around on a white horse, but I don't think Clark is the answer for BC anymore and furthermore, I don't think the BC Liberals are. We can look back and see the fast ferry fiasco that hides on the back of the NDP, but I think the HST debacle is worse. This province has been more and more expensive to live in in the last 4-5 years and at the very least, something needs to change....maybe that change is the NDP.

I am interested to see how the BC Liberal Party holds together after the election. Will they fall apart?
