A couple of CTV News reports out of Harbour Grace yesterday are interesting to listen to. It would appear that one reporters perception of the Premier's ABC campaign is fear & intimidation.
Former PC Fisheries Minister Jim Morgan who is known to have a personal axe to grind with the Premier, told CTV news that he has been the victim of intimidation by the so called"Danny boys". Apparently it is some sort of shocking scandal that Progressive Conservatives are being asked not to participate, help or fundraise for Conservative candidate Fabian Manning.
Morgan was frustrated that Progressive Conservatives did not turn out to the Prime Ministers election rally. I Can understand how that would frustrate Manning and his supporters but should they not have considered that before Mr. Manning elected to stand with Harper on the 2007 budget in defiance of the people in this province. The PC machine (MHAs and executives) is engaged in supporting its leader. What wrong with that? The writ is dropped and its judgement time.
If people want to support Fabian Manning I can't see why they would not attend a rally. The truth is Harper is despised in this province and that is spilling over on a populist MP who has poisoned his own well of support. Go figure!
