That says it all right there - he knows DS and the UCP are crap, but he has no choice. I like him and I feel he's represented us well, but I just can't vote for the party he's aligned with. And his reply was very quick - I don't think it's the first time he's had to advocate for himself over the party or Premier.

Desperate times for that dude. Gotta be pretty sad to get into politics, perhaps even for the right reasons, and finding yourself unaligned with your party and leader, but you don't have the balls to just drop out. Weak leaders breed weak candidates.
