I would have a problem voting for a bigot or a racist. Therefore I would not vote for Hunsperger or Leech. Incidentally, I also have a problem voting for someone who directly lies to me when I ask him a question - therefore I will not be voting for the PC candidate in my riding.
I can see why someone might not consider the character of the individual they are voting for, but I always will. It is important to me. I don't care if they are Christian, Liberal, Ultra-right wing, Chinese, from Mexico, College educated or a PEI potato farmer, but I do care about what that person will do when their back is against the wall. I care if they will do the right thing. I care if they will lie, steal or cheat to get ahead. I care if they promote hatred against other people. I also care if they are just too plain stupid to realize that they shouldn't say anything.
Its cool if you don't think the same thing. That's why we have elections - because different things are important to different people.
