That's not why I voted against them and I don't remember anyone else saying that either.

Sure, he inherited that party, then showed voters he was more of the same with his backroom Wildrose deal. He wanted to decimate what he saw as the only competition shortly before holding an election. It was cynical politics at its worst. It was short cited to the extreme, and he had his leg kicked out from him by the only remaining alternative, that no one even considered a threat in the NDP. Make no mistake, if he hadn't done that deal, no way would the NDP be in power.
