Superstar Politicians--All Singing, All Dancing!

Prime Minister Stephen Harper delighted his followers at a Conservative Christmas party by donning what appeared to be a modified Nehru leisure suit ($27.95, Value Village) and performing several songs familiar to people of his generation.  Partygoers, stimulated by decaf coffee and de-alcoholized fruit smoothies, leapt to their feet and gyrated wildly.

Opposition parties immediately began planning how to counter this performance.  It has been suggested that NDP leader Jack Layton, at his party's Christmas gathering, will perform Feats of Strength, while the Liberals' Michael Ignatieff is said to be practicing Interpretive Dance.   

Meanwhile, the latest Ipsos-Reid poll shows that the choice of a majority of Canadians for Prime Minister is Justin Bieber.
