What you've just described is the "progressive" approach to politics.  Their politics are so lacking in foundation that the only chance they have to get elected is to paint their opponents black.  

Remember "Harper is dangerous"?  Really?  Stick-handling our economy through a world-wide recession to the best outcome of all G-7 countries is dangerous?  

Remember, "Harper has a secret agenda"?  After 9 years in government, even those in the whispering character assassination campaign couldn't tell us what the secret was . . . but it didn't stop them whispering it to anyone stupid enough to believe it.

There are a lot of people who bought into the progressive's anti-Harper hysteria who now, upon sober reflection and having had to endure the futile government that is Trudeau Jr. for a couple of years, really miss having the cool hand of Harper on the tiller.
