But the fact is, the poll I'm referencing was taken when the Wildrose had a huge lead (the poll came out after the debate, but before the WR controversies). So more people want a WR government, but more people also think Redford is more competent and would be a better premier? That should show you that the people aren't drawn specifically to Danielle Smith, that they are more drawn to the party's message. Which I would hope would be the case. Having a charismatic leader with a message that doesn't resonate with voters won't get you anywhere.

Strangely silent so far on that one.

The difference is, Rasheed's comments are broader in nature. Someone like them could mean a hard-worker, an ethinic person, a commie or an alcoholic, so its open to interpretation. What Leech said is more cut and dry.
