Bob Rae out to huge lead in "worst modern Premier" poll

After the first day of polling, Bob Rae has amassed a whopping 56% of the vote. I was one of the 56% who voted for Bob as the most horrific Premier in the history of the country, but what has me surprised is that Glenn Clark only has 10% of the vote. Do my Ontario readers not know who Glenn Clark is, and how spectacular his failure of leadership was? He destroyed the BC NDP for a generation. Gordon Campbell keeps getting re-elected, not because of the "visionary" carbon tax, but because of the stink of Glenn Clark. They dropped half a billion dollars into the Fast Ferries boats made by their friends at the shipworkers union, and the boats were complete crap, never worked properly, and were sold back to the guy who made them for pennies on the dollar. Then there are those casino contracts that I think finally took him down.

Oh, and Vanderzaam was an intentional misspelling. You know Shazaam?

Bob Rae 62 (56%)
Dalton McGuinty 20 (18%)
Glenn Clark 12 (10%)
Danne Williams 6 (5%)

  3. Having lived under the Glen Clark regime I remember him well. He did a lot of damage, it is true. However I couldn't vote him as the worst premier (bob rae gets my vote) because he's at least buggered off.

    Bob Rae is back and needs constant reminder of how bad he was.

  4. Excellent point. Of all the nominees, Bob Rae is the only one on the National stage pleading to run the country. He was a brutal leader! He created government policy like the Swedish Chef in the Muppet Show.

    It was Clyde Wells but it was way more complicated than just one name but yes, he killed it.

  8. Where's Mike Harris? However much criticism Bob Rae gets for his work sharing Rae Days, Harris got 10 times that when he out and out fired everyone, destroying the health and education systems.

  9. Mike Harris is magnificent and not eligible for this poll. Thank God we had Iron Mike to undo the carnage reaped by Bob Rae! Too bad he was then followed by Dalton who is fucking it all up again...

  10. Mike Harris will be in my next poll for best Premier in the history of Canada.

  11. I didn't vote for his party, but in retrospect, Glen Clark was shafted. I'd take him over his successor, Ujjal Dosanjh, any day.
