Tired from PEI writes: If she gives this real effort she may in fact win.

Shawn has really done nothing for the riding except for his family. Kevin and his 1-4 Million in PNP has hurt Shawn.

Why would we vote him back in ???

Point to anything he really got accomplished while the Liberals were in power.

Being a nice guy only goes so far. We all could be nice if we had the money his family is gaining.

shurting from Charlottetown, PE writes: This is politics folks... sometimes even the losers can be winners. If a candidate runs for the party in power and is unsuccessful they usually find themselves appointed to one Federal committee or another with a good salary and benefits! Kinda a reward for trying!

READER FEEDBACK
  What is your opinion of the 30-page application form to be filled out by potential leadership candidates for the Progressive Conservative Party of P.E.I.?
 
This is a great idea. The party should know all that it can about their next leader.
It is a bit excessive. Is it really relevant to know whether a potential leader cheated on a high school exam?
