So if failure to differentiation yourself is really bad for a campaign, the Conservatives should be hurting just as much as the Liberals. They aren't, because attack ads work.
What makes the Conservatives the best choice is the fact that they more ethical than the Liberals and much more responsible at spending money than a NDP government would be. There best characteristic is their moderation. The toughest job the opposition has is convincing Canadians that their guy would be better.
