Don't know who's dumber, him or her. Her political career is all but over now. She just lost a good portion of votes (married women), being the mistress. Doubt she'll even get re-elected in her riding unless people there are complete morons. She probably won't care having her father's millions to fall back on.
Shows that you know fuck-all about politics. She is EXTREMELY popular in her riding, even after going through an election following her changing parties. The Conservatives' stand on social issues, their foreign policy, and the recent cuts to programs serving minorities, women, and the poor, will almost ensure she is re-elected. Frankly, I doubt they give a fuck who she is seeing. She's a grown woman.

Why do we continue to hold politicians to a higher moral standard especially on a hooker review board? She's not married, she didn't cheat, Domi did.
Amen.
If Stronach were a man, there wouldn't be near the fuss. Just like when she crossed the floor, the comments were mostly of the "political whore" variety.
Women are held to a higher standard when it comes to this stuff than men are.
Neanderthal bullshit from the likes of Harper, Jason Kenney, Rob Anders, etc. was part of the reason she crossed the floor. Cabinet post or not.
