I also hope Manning is right, the choices are pretty poor.
Hinman is a decent fellow. He's definitely the only one of the four candidates that actually gets market economics and accompanying fiscal conservatism. He is a bit whacky on some of those social issues. Whatever... Taft the Tolerant seemed to agree with him on some of those points.

Frick. It seriously would not be hard to pull together a good platform based upon free market environmentalism. With the amount of good policy ideas coming out of the Alberta grassroots, I could pull together a good platform in a day. You'd get some big guns to support you, too.
