When Decore was the Liberal leader they understood that to get elected they would have to be fiscally on the conservative side, and they came fairly close to getting elected.
After Decore they latched onto the "Klein is Satan" mantra of the NDP and rode it right into oblivion. It made them popular with the CBC and the Journal, but not with ordinary people.
Blame the rise of the Wild Rose on the incompetence of the Liberal Party's leadership for the last 15 or so years. I'm only voting PC because the Liberals are too dumb to be in power, and because a vote for anyone but the PCs is a vote for D Smith.
