Wow that's a pretty terrible view of the makeup of Canada, someone who you know could sway potential voters from a party you disagree with is someone you won't support?!?
The bottom line is that in any democracy it is much healthier to have a change in government every so often to reduce the inevitable occurance of corruption and waste. Power always corrupts.
Thus, when we are seeing a CPC that is beginning to show signs of problems, I think it would be healthier to have a Liberal Party moving ahead with a leader that could capture the center and govern all of Canada instead of one who will likely further fracture the electorate and in my mind solidify many more years of Conservative rule.
