Poll results, Turner, and Graham

3 things to cover now:

There's a poll out pitting the Liberals, gasp, ahead of the conservatives nationally. While mid-term polls don't mean much, it's nice to know that we're not falling behind in our leaderless state. If the 2 parties can stay close through the new year, it will be interesting to see how the parties play it this winter. The tories will want to be extra careful not to fall unless if they're ahead, but then if the Tories are playing nice, the Liberals will have to be careful not to look opportunistic and throw down a non-disliked bill.

Garth had his press conference yesterday. I watched it. Not overly exciting overall. Basically, he wants to feel important, and promote his new website. Uh, no wait, I guess he actually wanted to promote HIS new website.

Finally, just after Garth's talk, I had to run out to go see Bill Graham on his way around town. He was gracious enough to come visit the University of Waterloo Young Liberals, give a speech, and talk to our club. We had a good turnout and most people seemed to be excited to get the big shot in the party come to our club. He is really a very knowledgeable individual, and at least once I heard someone ask him if he would consider running for leadership ;).
