Not picking on you, but in the last provincial election it blew me away how many people didn't know the difference. I spoke to a ton of people who said they liked the Wildrose but really didn't want to vote against Stephen Harper.

You're insulting because you obviously know nothing about me. You don't have a clue what I understand. I've been following politics since Diefenbaker. Just look at one of our posters signature, Flames, Wild Rose and CPC. Crockette has Wild Rose roots as well from what I understand. Maybe you should take a remedial reading course.
