What the Attack Ads Say

Paul Wells has posted several interesting observations on the Conservative attack ads as they appear in Quebec. Notably, he critiques the mention of Chretien:

"When I see an attack ad based on Chrétien and Dion, I think: the Liberals' best two years in Quebec in the past 15 were the ones when that old bleu, Lucien Bouchard, was fuming about Chrétien and Dion."

I think that Harper may believe his own propaganda about Chrétien. I think he perceives Chrétien as a really awful Prime Minister and would like nothing more than to be able to continue dragging his name through the mud.
