text: Mr. Singh's swagger is not something the NDP needs (or wants).  
  
  At heart, NDP members are really quite "conservative" - they want a "return to the NDP roots", they want to go back to the principles of the CCF founders.  Mr. Singh may have more sign-ups, but the core base of the NDP doesn't want flashy image.  It wants ideas, strong policies and mostly, to take back the left.
