Bill is right that John should just stop walking the Park

Dalton Mcguinty owns John Tory, outright with no real help from any other political entity, so Bill Murdoch, the maverick MPP of Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound, is right when he tells him to just stop walking the Park, get inside or stay outside. Without a real actual seat in the Ontario legislature, Tory had the chance and now Murdoch believes his Progressive Conservative party must cut their losses and elect a real leader, since we all know leadership does matter.

The problem is he is the only member of their 26 member caucus who believes this, especially after the special closed door caucus meeting held in Barrie Bill did not attend to find out who the lucky members was going to be to give up their seat for John, mainly due to his own promise of finding a seat by the end of the year or else, a choice prospect for Dalton as he watches Tory power disintegrate, as Stephen Harper and the feds have no time for their provincial Progressive cousins, giving them no government appointments or any other kind of inside job at Ottawa, where the real power now resides.

Even Bob Runciman, the current House Leader and MPP of Leeds-Grenville, has made it hard to resign for Tory now, as if he did it, people would ask why did he not do it right after John failed to get elected in unsuccessful attempt in Don Valley West, after successfully winning then spurring the good people of Dufferin-Peel-Wellington-Grey, or now just Dufferin-Caledon. Perhaps Mcguinty will feel sorry for Tory, give Vic Dhillon a social justice work government head job in the Park, give him Brampton West to run and then let him be the next Bill Davis, then again probably not.
