My post stated plainly that there is nothing ethically wrong with appointing senators who ran and lost
as MPs. They are two different positions....clearly. You're (proper use) splitting hairs by complaining about one "type" of appointment versus another. Unless you can point out where it says that ethically you should not appoint a second-place finisher in a federal election of MPs..which you won't, because it doesn't exist.
Your position as undecided did not offend me except for when you prefaced a "slam CPC / Harper" rant as a neutral, unbiased poser. "I'm undecided, but I can't get past how Harper drowns kittens and the CPC is generally evil." - dramatization.
