So are UCP supporters actually just dumb people, or can we hear from a smart one?

I tuned into QR77 today because it has been bothering me how I keep failing to come up with anything I can find redeemable in Smith or her supporters. I was listening to a call-in show and all the callers were so unbelievably stupid and ill informed. It's actually weird. They're living in an alternate reality.

I want to make sure I'm not turning into a mindless partisan, but how can it be I not only disagree with everything the UCP is doing, but that I also think everyone of them is a dope of the highest order. I honestly don't believe that can be true. There have to be some smart people who can frame things differently to give us some insight on their thought process and vision for the future.

It's like everything they say is the opposite of what they do. And then everything they do will yeild the exact opposite of what they think it will do. That's fataed up.
Well, assuming the election is in May, a lot can change in 6 months. But I think a lot of center-right voters stay home. They’re not happy with Smith and her direction, but not voting NDP either.

If I was Smith, I’d cool it on the stupidity and just run on the economy. They’re going to put up what…$10b as a surplus? There’s no way a PST is in the cards and things are economically great. You run on that and then do your crackpot things after that. But…I’m not voting for them anyway and I’m not their target audience.
