IF the aim of the party is to make substantial change to policy along conservative lines, then Red Tory.
IF they to be more electable, then Blue Tory.
At least that's the way it seems right now.
This begs the question, can Red Tories get elected in the nation?

Red Tories are more electable than Blue Tories. Blue Tories are the Alliance guys, Red Tories are the old PCs.

Opps. I had it reversed.
Thanks for pointing that out BBM.
It should read:

We're not just talking about more left vs. more right Tories, are we?
No problem, Blue Tories are the righter than what the Conservative party is right now. Or think of original Reform Party.
Red Tories are the left of the new Conservative Party. Think of Brian Mulroney as a Red Tory, Belinda Stronach, and John Tory.

People are musing over whether a conservative-conservative party or a liberal conservative party is best?
The way I see it we have:
ConPC=left center
Liberal=left
NDP=extreme left
Green Party=enviromentalist NDP/ComPC hybrid
ComPC=outright communists
There is no true conservative party in this country anymore.
Our right sits to the left of the US right which isn't all that right anymore.

Clark and Stanfield are both outdated models.
Mulroney ran a fairly socially progressive Government.
Neo-con is just a hateful term and a continuing attempt by the left to promote "scary, scary, scary" without any support.
Mulroney and MacKay would both be red tories on a fair scale and I would definitely support them. There is no reason to go any further left than those two.
