Motoro Posted June 28, 2004 Report Posted June 28, 2004 I find it ridiculous that some federalist Quebecers who were parking their votes with the BQ because they were angry at the Liberals may now be switching back for fear of the separatist agenda. I mean, what kind of idiocy is that?? When have the Bloc ever purported to be anything but sovereignist? Hellooo?? And these voters are just now realizing that "Hey, these separatists may actually have a separatist agenda...can't have any of that now. Better vote Liberal to be safe." Nevermind the fact that the Bloc has no real power to effect their sovereignist agenda. Nevermind the fact that the provincial Liberal government is federalist, and will be in power for at least another 2 to 3 years. If these voters were angry enough to support the Bloc in the first place, what exactly did they think they were getting with a Bloc vote? Just because Duceppe hasn’t been talking up separation, does that mean he is suddenly federalist or even neutral? Either these voters are massively ignorant, or their votes are easily swayed by emotions in the heat of the moment, or they do things because it’s simply fashionable (i.e. bashing Liberals). Either way, one gets the impression that these voters are a marketer’s dream. They will follow the rest of the sheep over the cliff if given a chance. Does anyone else here see it that way? Quote
