It is funny how the right wing have no respect for the taxpayers when it comes to unnecessary by-elections.  They cut and run and then leave the taxpayers holding the bag to pay for their lack of respect for the taxpayers.  Think Prentice, Harper, Clark in BC to name a few, the masters of cut and run and waste the taxpayers money while at the same time yapping about cutting taxes.  What total right wing hypocrisy.
