Why the Widow Is Running As a Conservative
From the allegation by his widow that New Conservatives offered a $1,000,000 bribe to Chuck Cadman (by way of a life insurance policy in his dying days) has sprung the question from various and sundry, "so why is she running for the Conservatives?"
Well, Dear Reader, I expect it's because she's a Conservative. And why should she have to leave her Party of choice just because some people in it are amoral to the point of being indistinguishable from mobster hooligans or Liberals?
I mean, I remember when a group of Goody Albertans wanted the Progressive Conservative Party to devolve its already-less-than-Progressive ideals and the Party said "maybe later", so the Goody Albertans splintered off to form their own Reform Party which would later come back to swallow the old Progressive Conservative Party whole.
Why do you think that happened, Dear Reader? It happened because people who believed in those already-less-than-Progressive ideals didn't hold fast to their slightly-less-than-legitimate principles and when the Goody Albertans came back to steal office supplies, they were able to swallow the Progressive Conservative Party whole.
Unless... wait a minute... did that really happen or was that a Star Trek episode?
