Calvert Cares, But His Campaign Team Is Asleep At The Switch

Further to my previous post...

We live in a digital age. Something called the Internet has been around since Al Gore invented it in the late '60's. Most people started really using the Internet around 1995. And many political campaigns have embraced the Internet.

Now, if a campaign brand is going to be used, in most cases that particular domain name is purchased beforehand to link a marketing campaign to it.

That's not rocket science. But evidently for the NDP, it is...

The NDP campaign team, run by Doug Still, a former Social Studies teacher from Humboldt, forgot that very simple rule when they came up with "Calvert Cares. Calvert Delivers."

calvertcares, calvertdelivers and calvertcarescalvertdelivers (.com and .ca) are all owned by... you guessed it; The Saskatchewan Party.

As a matter of fact, you can find all sorts of NDP shortcomings on calvertdelivers.com courtesy of the Sask Party.

It used to be the NDP were lousy at governing, but great at campaigning.

Now it seems, they're lousy at both.

No wonder Dale Schmeichel bailed...

That alone is enough to dump them. How could they be soooo dumb?
