I don't think the PC's can recover from this, the opposition is smelling a lot of blood in the water and I don't think Dave Hancock is going to handle the assault well. On top of that, the blood splashback from Redford's reign is going to soak the candidates running for the leadership.
Even though I don't really like him as our mayor all that much. The PC Party should be begging and pleading for him to run for the party leadership.

I might have already said this, but I think that the actual election is far closer than people think. By the time 2016 rolls around they have the enviable position of saying "we balanced the budget, didn't raise taxes and look at all the infrastructure we have going. These yahoos on this side wanted to raise taxes. These other yahoos wanted to slash everything. Instead we stuck with a prudent, measured approach and didn't panic."
Whether you like the PC's or don't, and I carry a card for another party, that's a really compelling message. If I were the PCs I would definitely be bring that message to bear as the election gets closer.
