Proposed Line of Attack

Jesse:
Ignatieff: "Mr. Harper's spent millions to try to prove to the Canadian people that I'm an academic, not a politician. He's right. I don't "need" to be Prime Minister. I want to lead this country because I care about Canada, and I care about Canadians. But Mr. Harper and his gang need to be in power. They're lifelong, professional politicians. Mr. Harper's never done anything else. Jim Flaherty's never been anything other than a deficit-ridden finance minister. Is it any surprise they're taking your children's tax dollars and spending them on getting themselves re-elected? They have nothing if they're not in power. [So how's the hockey book coming, Mr. Prime Minister?]"

[Editor's note; maybe don't say the hockey book part].
