Can't you smell that smell

I am the only one who has a weird fascination in watching
Sheila Copps carve Paul Martin?

...Visual clues are important in passing the political smell test. Turn off the sound on your television and just watch the body language of the Prime Minister. Paul Martin looks like a man who has been hit by a Mack truck. You can smell fear emanating from every pore of his body.
Contrast that to Stephen Harper. The man appears relaxed, focused and positively prime ministerial. Gone are the steely squints of the last campaign that left people feeling there was something really scary behind those baby blues. They have been replaced with the touch, feel and yes, even the smell of victory.

Consider that CTV is reporting on how poor a job Paul Martin is doing. Here is the CalgaryGrit's translation of their report.

...CTV news described PMPM's post sec announcement as "A tired and confused Paul Martin announced his party's previously leaked platform in a half empty gymnasium." (paraphrasing)
