Also, Notley's closing remarks were excellent. Good acknowledgments and asking to be hired is smart. Her campaign is a job application and positioned as such. - Guest Contributor

#abvoteGlobal @davidswann didn't say anything damaging to his party or opposition but didn't really say anything at all. Seemed apatheticby Somjinho via twitter 4/24/2015 1:55:09 AM

Notley is wrong to ask rhetorical questions: As for me, I will hire Jim to keep improving the lives of Albertans and putting our government back on track.

My problem with Jean: He keeps telling us what he WON'T do. I want to know what he WILL do. #abvote #abvoteglobalby scbritton via twitter 4/24/2015 1:55:20 AM -

Swann gave a great closing speech, but he sounds like he's deluding himself that he can end up as Premier #abvoteGlobal #abvoteby ChrisBurgeTX via twitter 4/24/2015 1:55:24 AM -

Jean loosened up considerably during the debate but was far more comfortable going off paper than the debate format. I'm curious what he'll be like in the next election if he stays leader. (Also, he won't raise taxes. In case you missed that.) - Guest Contributor
