Despite the rhetoric from the CPC core, the CPC have never been a party of "substance".   They got elected because of Adscam, got a majority because of Pork, and tried to stay elected by talking about "nice hair" and "snitch lines".    

You would think after 10 years in Power a party would try to run on their record, but even they must know that would never fly.  So it's back to the usual (eg: fly south to undermine your own country on Fox) for the hapless Scheer CPC.
