I try not to think about how little choice we have... its essentially the south park election episode in real life.
Best case scenario, Stelmach gets creamed, retains a majority and gets kicked out for a new leadership election and some better candidates. I can't vote PC though, cause my MLA is a dufus (and used to be my religion teacher).

I've been thinking about officially declining my ballot at the polls this year. It's some measure of protest... either that or I'll vote for one of the wacky fringe parties. Maybe the Greens. Although, I've met all of their leadership and I find them to be the most ridiculously smug/whiny people in the world.
Once I mentioned how I supported Harper and the Conservatives over some policy issue and one of them literally turned her back on me and walked away. So actually they've lost my vote forever.
I keep hoping Preston Manning is right and some new Alberta party will rise from the ashes.
