"Right now, her personal popularity falls well short of the popularity her party enjoys with the public."

Seriously?  You must be watching a different movie from the rest of us, Mr. Mason.  Obviously, you're a Liberal supporter, attempting at every turn to run down the NDP.  And a vociferous opposition?  I don't know about that.  Just going to work in the legislature will be an effort for these MLAs who have rarely sat over the last 15 years.  Ms. Clark may have been vocal in opposition when she was climbing the ladder, but I seriously doubt her ego will allow her to play runner up.
