   Guess which city is likely to not vote for Harper and his Cons?   
   Christy Clark, your taking time from your holidays is soooooo appreciated, too   
   [>_<]   
   After all, your province is burning.

   Why A B.C. News Website Referred To Harper Only As 'Man In Blue Suit'   
      
   A news website in British Columbia opted not to include Stephen Harper's name   
   in its report on the prime minister's visit to wildfire-ravaged West Kelowna   
   Thursday, and referred to him in the headline only as a "man in blue suit."   
      
   Infonews.ca reporter Adam Proskiw's story noted that reporters and   
   "exhausted-looking firefighters" waited an hour for what turned out to be a   
   five-minute press conference featuring the prime minister and B.C. Premier   
   Christy Clark.   
      
   Proskiw wrote that Clark answered two questions from journalists, while the   
   prime minister answered just one.   
      
   "The prime minister would not take questions about why he was there, how much   
   time the photo opportunity took from firefighters or what resources were used   
   in the photo effort," Proskiw wrote.   
      
   The photo that the site ended up using put the focus on a firefighter, not the   
   politicos.
