Is the right incapable of polite, rational argument or has it's culture devolved to the point where civil debate is impossible?

Personally, I think most have been pretty civil. But not uncommon for us on the right to be labelled angry, name-calling, rednecks.

Which is surprising, given how much Nenshi support there was on this forum.

The complete lack of PC supporters is surprising though. Is it that their supporters are mostly in an older demographic that doesn't frequent message boards or that right now the party is hard to defend?

We should ask Photon (I think it would be him); if we can have a poll for voting intentions. Maybe have it re-set each week. There was a piece on news last night that most people don't make their voting decision until the actual campaign starts.

Lucky for you the EverGreen Party achieved registration.
