What does the CPC have to do to shed that image without losing Harper as the leader?
I'm the same as you - Fiscally conservative, socially liberal. I have yet to see any movement on the socially conservative side of the ledger, no matter what boogyman fears that others want to bring up. If they do, I see it as complete political suicide, which is why I don't see them ever going that way.
