I look at this as an opportunity for 3 parties (who admittedly have some major differences) to look beyond their own interests, find some common ground, and act on that common ground for the good of all of the people who support any one of these parties.

Think about it -if any of the 3 of them got so arrogant as to put one of their differences above the collective common ground, they would be out of the alliance.

This kind of arrogance is what keeps the conservatives on the edge of power - they cannot and seemingly will not compromise. If the conservatives had any ability to compromise, then THEY would be the ones in a position to form a coalition and gain true power to make decisions.

The fact that they cannot, and the other 3 can, speaks volumes.

I say we give it a try. It's got to be better than the go-nowhere conservative minority we've been stuck with lately.

I vote down for offensiveness and up for humour. I cast no votes based on my level of agreement.
