Latest admail from Team Abbott attacking Christy Clark

On February 4th - the George Abbott campaign sent an admail letter to every registered BC Liberal Party voter criticizing Christy Clark's position on the HST, upcoming provincial election, etc.  See Team Christy Clark's response here (Editor's Note - anyone who wants a copy of the George Abbott admail, pls email at sforseth000@hotmail.com and I'll ensure you get a copy to see the hurtful comments about Christy Clark from the George Abbott campaign)

Now, let's look at some of his outrageous campaign suggestions:

1) Plunge our government into an early election, and ignore the law around set election dates, just to avoid running in a by-election

This is so outrageous it's not funny.  Firstly, like the Prime Minister of Canada in 2008, the Premier of BC can call for an election at any time as is his/her right as "First Minister".  Also - do we know for sure that Gordon Campbell or any other BC Liberal MLA will resign his/her seat for the new Leader?  Maybe (according to media reports) but that's not a sure thing, but I agree with Christy that the new BC Liberal Party Leader (if he or she is not a sitting MLA) should get a mandate from the voters' as soon as possible

2) Christy Clark is supported by NDP insiders who see her as the easiest chance to get the NDP back into power in 2013

This suggestion is so "out of touch".  There is not a shred of proof that the Christy Clark campaign is being assisted by NDP'ers of any sort.  In fact, this is so hypocritical of George Abbott himself who was once a NDP member himself

3) Christy Clark does not know Rural BC

Again - the suggestion is soo outrageous.  The fact is: Christy Clark is the only BC Liberal Party Leadership Candidate to state her 110% support behind the local "Prosperity Mine" proposal.  No other candidate has expressed their undying support for this mine.  This region needs Prosperity which is why I'm confident that Christy knows Rural BC issues, which includes resolving the Community Grants issue which is a huge issue in Williams Lake - a Rural community in BC

As far as this BC Liberal Party voter is concerned - George Abbott just lost my vote period.  I will not be voting for him whatsoever. 

However, I'm proud to state that Christy Clark is my choice for BC Liberal Party Leader and the 35th Premier of British Columbia!!!
