Let the bloodletting begin! (Tory edition)

Okay, after watching Stephen Harper slug his way through this brutal election, with the Liberals throwing everything they had at him, hands up all those of you who think that the Tories would have done as well or better with another leader at the helm: someone who could have similarly finessed gay marriage, or abortion, or any number of other issues without one wing of the party or another peeling off; who could have stood up as well to the Prime Minister in the debates, in both languages; who would have been as credible on the issues, as impressive on the stump, as tough in a scrum; who could have come up with the strategy to begin with.
Peter MacKay, anyone? Bernard Lord? Or, God help us, the Minister of Complex Files? (Now, of course, the Opposition critic with that responsibility.)
Funny. There sure were a lot more of you six months ago.
MORE: In fact, there was even a website devoted to pushing Harper Out. Paul Wells has linked to it before, but I feel this does not give those involved the credit they deserve. Here, then, for greater ease of purging, is the complete list of Conservatives "asking for Stephen Harper's resignation":
