I think that if they moved to the middle (traditional "Liberal" territory), they had a chance to hold enough urban votes to have a shot. Edmonton is a solid base, and I think Calgary would have rewarded competence sufficiently to have a shot. I may be wrong - I don't claim to have a finger on the political pulse in the City. But, having elected and re-elected Nenshi I think suggests a certain open-mindedness...
