We've had two years to get to know him, and unfortunately we just don't like him. Sorry, but it's true; more than one person has told me that they find him "creepy" and cold. Then there's his many gaffes and miscalculations, his bluffs followed by embarrassing retreats, MPs openly defying him at will, etc, etc.<br /><br /> Yeah, I know he's your leader. But the public has spoken and they won't be changing their minds. The only thing that *might* work in your favor is popular policies (and I don't mean pandering to select groups at the expense of others) and the sense that the Liberals are once again ready to lead. Don't fly trial balloons and discard them when people balk....that's just amateurish. Put the policy wonks to work and see what they can come up with.<br /><br /> (and don't shoot the messenger, okay?
