Stelmach will be the leader for the PC durring the next election. Rural anti city arrogance of the PC party dictates that. They want to show all the "city folk mla" that they dont need them.

What they dont seem to realize is that city is where they have the advantage over the Wildrose. They should have been slowly removing seats from rural and adding seats to suburban big city voters.

I streamed most of the speech, definately long winded and pie in the sky type stuff. If the Wildrose have a chance its Smith vs Stelmach in televised debates. Look for there to be only 1 during the election as the PC have to know this.

I think the best outcome for the Wildrose is to force the PC into minority position where there is another election when they can garner more money from supporters who then think they have a legit shot. Right now they are at a severe financial disadvantage vs the PC which is why I think it would be hard to hope for anything more than forcing the PC to a minority position.
