By comparison, Jack Layton’s net improvement score in the English-language federal debate was +41 points, and +42 in the French-language debate.” – Ipsos Reid “Horwath managed to come off as friendly and down-to-earth, without seeming a lightweight… When she told a story about a woman on the streets of Ottawa giving her a hug over an NDP education-related promise, Horwath did it with sincerity because she’s the only leader who’s done any significant mainstreeting during this election campaign.” – Joanne Chianello, “Debate crowns NDP leader homecoming queen”, Ottawa Citizen “Ms. Horwath… was vastly more confident and better-prepared than during her tentative performance in last week’s dry-run Northern-issues debate. And she got off what was probably the line of the night – sharply interjecting, as Mr. McGuinty tried to explain his controversial cave-in this past weekend to opposition to a long-planned power-plant, that what has changed is that there’s now an election campaign on.” – Adam Radwanski, Globe and Mail, Sept 27, 2011 “Andrea Horwath convinced 35% of viewers that she is the leader that has the best ideas and policies (+10)… Andrea Horwath (52%, +8) was chosen by a majority for being the most likeable, that is, the person they would most want to go out for a beer or coffee with.” – Ipsos Reid “She brought that personality through” – Paul Bliss, LeDrew Live “She gave them [voters] reason to go to her team”- Will Stewart, LeDrew Live read moreSep 28, 2011 5:19 am | Ontario, Kingston and the Islands
