Poll shows that more than half of the people who voted Conservative did so not because they wanted a CPC government, but because the CPC were the only option that was not the Liberal party.

It's also worth noting that, when polled, these CPC voters said they liked parts of the CPC platform, but wanted other parts, like national child care, to be replaced with the Liberal's version. More than 2/3 of CPC voters said they wanted Harper to break his promise to "revisit" same-sex marriage. Only 44% of CPC voters expect the CPC to be good for the economy, while 47% expect them to be bad for it.

Pardon me while I giggle.

Joshua Philip Martin was in his fourth day on the job as a rescue-squad worker in Russell County when, in a playful mood, he decided to reach into the front seat of the ambulance and zap one of his co-workers with the defibrillator paddles.

Yesterday, in Russell Circuit Court, a judge convicted Martin, 25, of involuntary manslaughter.

I have seen the future.
