| Message | "I don't know what's more surprising--that the Whigs would make such a nakedly obvious attempt to insert themselves in the cabinet when the other parties would have a governing majority without them, or that the RP and the Conservatives are letting them. Does the RP have an actual plan or legislative agenda? Are the Conservatives happy with the Whigs taking over the treasury and the foreign office when the Conservative Party controls more than twice the seats? Can either party do basic arithmetic?" --CRL spokesman John Connel |

| Message | " It is amusing to see the CRL attempt to destroy the governing coalition, we stood together in the election and we are standing together under President Lucas Gill who we all worked together to elect. The CRL should instead focus on reforming their party after the failed presidency of Henry Blake, the voters of Rutania clearly rejected the CRL and their destructive actions over the last 4 years. --Whig Party Chairman Elmer Clark |
