But what if he named it the the "conservatey conservative party" while maintaining exactly the same policies you would expect from him?
I think there are two classes that make up 90% of remaining UPC voters. Those of the view it all as a team sport, are willing to hand wave away anything long they are owning the libs, to get back at them for how annoying their self righteousness is (it is annoying). And those who haven't scratched the political surface deeper than names and stereotypes in years, and just are ignoring the evidence content to believe that the UPC are the economically responsible adults in the room, in-spite of all evidence.
I think the first group anyone who pisses off the libs stands a chance, but Neshi doesn't.
For the second group if you have conservative if your name and poll well enough to win, you could run Leon Trotsky and they would vote for him to keep those damned socialists out.
