All things being equal -- booo

Did you hear Ignatieff today going on about equality?

I just hate it when the privileged classes start waxing on about equality.

Please, don't pretend that you're one of *us*. That's what makes people cynical. Ivy league, silver spoon, caviar eating elites.

Run around all the campaign events you want. Do a country-wide tour. No matter where you are it's not real. You don't even know who we are, don't keep pretending you have any idea what we want.

If you knew anything about us, you'd know that the people in Mississauga didn't boo because they'd had a couple of beers like you said, they booed because they knew that's what you'd think about them.

Ignatieff is disconnected from Canada because his brain trust and the people working for his election are also disconnected from Canada.

For example, who are these people? http://www.avaaz.org/ca/

An American creation of Moveon.org and Res Publica working to influence a Canadian election should be raising qute a few more headlines than who is being booed.
