Blogging Tory co-founder Stephen Taylor is amused by the notion of a Canadian politician trying to emulate an American one:
Is Stephane Dion trying to channel the success of Barack Obama’s campaign? Hope and change and change and hope.
Now, all Dion has to do is work on adapting Obama’s inspirational speaking style and then he’ll win a landslide majority and get back into power “as soon as possible”.
At least he’s hopeful.
Yes, Stephen ... Canadian politicos aping their southern counterparts ... pretty hilarious, wouldn't you say? Or maybe not.

You can come up hundreds of examples of Harpy emulating the Bush Crime Syndicate. We could start by just listing all the connections the Conservatives have to American think tanks, right wing media and the Republican Party.
But Stephen Taylor is one to talk: he's the one who objected (in a hilarious display of journalistic ignorance) to a report by the Gazette's Elizabeth Thompson on a event sponsored by Civitas which featured GOP pollster and Right Wing Newspeak theoretician Frank Luntz, early in Harpy's tenure, in which Luntz tutored the poor, witless Canadians on how to manipulate the electorate.
The fact that Taylor objected to the event ever having been reported on proves there was something to hide.
That Taylor could write something like that with a straight face is indicative of how deeply dishonest (or deluded) the young man is.
