Today's poll question; what is the best method of selecting a party leader? The preferred method is a leadership convention where party members are provided the opportunity to elect a man or woman to lead them. The Liberal Party never elected Ignatieff leader, choosing instead the "backroom deal with nearest rival to avoid democratic process" method. Should we rethink the conventional logic that leadership conventions are the way to go? How about a webpolling or mail in voting method? Should we go with a more populist approach and have a Canadian Idol type contest on the CBC, or have rivals compete on the TV show Wipeout?

ReplyDeleteheard over at Liblogs a new news aggregator launch tomorrow, Monday.
The journalists themselves submit the stories to the aggregator, instead of like at NNW, where the articles are cherry picked and faux scandals rule the day.
But, the line up is the same old same old, however it will include QMI (Sun media)
Time will tell if this is just another platform for the lefties, where the journalists push boring Ottaws bubble gossip, and continue to try to make the coalition of losers more pallatable.
