Who do I phone up to become leader of that party? It couldn't be that hard. Maybe a skill testing question or something.

I think the majority of the Albertan populace resides exactly as that; fiscally conservative and socially moderate.
The Wildrose party failed to capture the social middle. And the the Liberal party has failed to capture any fiscal sanity.
Now Prentice seems to be moving the PC's back to their strongest position, and it could be a huge opportunity lost for the opposition parties, and all Albertans, for some fresh blood and ways of running things.
