Ralph succeeded because as he put it he figured out where the people were going and got out in front of them. The long list of narcissistic kooks who now seek to take over that party are trying to take people where they want them to go. And they all seem to live in an echo chamber. They had their chance; they made their call; you really what you sow.

Great piece, Ken! Brings to mind the treatise you wrote w/ Sean Speer on Ordered Liberty all those years back. Dispositionally (versus ideologically) conservative is a great way to describe Albertans. I've always found Alberta to be an anomalous mixture of Old (Central/Eastern) Europe and the Wild West but could never find the right words to characterize its political culture. You're bang on here, as usual.
