Good luck to your party David. They are both good candidates in my opinion – not without their flaws.I like the comparison that has been made in the local rags – one has no vision, but lots of experience in the nitty gritty while one has vision but no experience. It certainly showed in the debates I have attended. I suspect the truth lies somewhere in between. Also I should add that there has been near universal praise for the Vision backing team (you guys) from the local policy wonks who I hear from on occasion.Bon chance
