One of the party leaders and predicted leader of tehc ountry had this to say during the election day
""I have just done what I want every citizen in Israel to do: first of all to get out of the house, rain or no rain, cold or hot, go out, go to the polling station, go into the booth, close your eyes, and vote," Livni said, after casting her ballot in Tel Aviv."

LOL yeah lets all close our eyes come next election... lets see where that gets us. There will be like 6 or so legitimate votes, the rest will be tossed for not being properly completed.

I believe most Manitobans have been closing their eyes at the polls for a decade. How else do you explain three consecutive Evil Doer governments?

He is the lesser of the evils out there, to bad but true . Mcfadyen is a day dreamer from wherever . Jon is to honest for politics but is the smarter one out there .

No effective opposition. Murray? What a mistake. Hughy doesn't get enough press coverage and he really screwed himself by pledging to bring back the Jets. That sort of snake oil concept is the hallmark of socialists and losers.

McFadyen and his party have been flying so far under the radar as to be almost invisible. Not sure what their strategy is but I don't think it is working.

The last two Leaders have been less than we need to dump Doer.
Who is waiting in the wings though?

Gary Filma was the 2nd greatest provincial leader that manitoba ever has. Gary Doer has been the 3rd best. All we seem to do is criticize on the forum. I thought this thread was about Israel elections? I must have missread, not to be confused with misspoke! off topic lol!

Isn't the girly in Israel leading 30-29, in a parliament that has 120 seats?
Now that is going to be some coalition needed to run the country, where members of all 16 parties participate in the running of the country.
Something like The Liberals, NDP, and the BQ promising not to bring down the govt for 18 months.
I would have preferred that to spending $30 Billion extra dollars, but what the heck Canada is in the strongest financial position of all G-8 Countries.
I wonder why the govt didn't just send out all that money to the poor, the people on social assisstance, and the uneployed.
That would have gotten all the money into the economy immediately! Is it because the Conservatives don't like poor people?

28-27 with 61 needed for a majority! Way more exciting than Canada where Conservatives are beaten by a liberal, NDP, BQ coalition!
