People need to realize that Kathleen Wynne is providing some key lessons (for the willing student) on how political strategy works. It's stunning that most Ontario voters still do not recognize, that politicians have two primary goals: election and re-election. Everything starts from there.

Political decisions always take those 2 key points into consideration. And Kathy is a master at focusing on them. What we're seeing is a reaction to her well-deserved approval rating and a party that has been in power too long. She is only concerned with holding power and proving that she is 'the one to lead'. While she may not have displaced McGuinty as Ontario's worst premier, she certainly is doing her best to replace him. 

There are of course, complacent partisan voters who give no thought to their actions and simply vote Liberal (or otherwise) because of habit, or 'because dad did too'. They are part of the problem. But they are also an easy, primary target, for election-focused politicians.
