The difference is, the Wildrose had 3 sitting Mla's jump on board early on that help to define the party for voters as to where they sat politically.The Alberta party had Dave Taylor jump over but he never made much noise as an Alberta party member, nor did he ever run in an election as an AP member to articulate or publicize their platform. Greg Clark has a big job ahead of him, and I think he has to make sure he attracts candidates that aren't seen anywhere left of center in order to make headway.
