To come up with ideas and encourage caucus participation, [Liberal platform co-chairman Bob] Rae had MPs and senators break up into small groups of about five that were asked to develop themes, in bite-size phrases, for the platform.One MP said that marrying the economy with environmental action was a dominant theme -- "some form of 'It's the environmental economy, stupid.' " Some came up with slogans such as, "The environment is wealth" or "The environment is health," MPs said.
But there were other slogans -- from "Hope and opportunity" to "Leading edge" -- designed to portray the party as more innovative and progressive than the Conservatives.
Let's put our differences aside for the moment and help the Liberals out. They're welcome to any of these:
The Mo is StrongNow With 30% Less Corruption
We Have Our Convictions
Pay No Attention To The Men Behind The Curtain
There was a leader who had a dog
And Kyoto was his name-o
K-Y-O-T-O
K-Y-O-T-O
K-Y-O-T-O
And Kyoto was his name-o
No charge!

How about "please be as stupid as we think you are"? I'm sure it'd go over well with the voters.

I love them all.
"30% less corruption!" was the best though.
Gotta love Dion for bringing back Cote. One of the button men on the east side?
Librano's and brown bags of public cash, the good ole days.
