Fundamentally Paul Martin needs a thesaurus

I just watched a CTV interview with Paul Martin. He didn't really say anything, he never does. More of the same rhetoric, Martin is an eternal optimist about his political fortunes, he likes the platform he put forward, and would really like to brush off all of that icky scandal stuff. He also made a point of attacking Harpers budget plan whilst quoting random figures. Maybe he could explain why he has been so far off in estimating the surplus in the last five years before he chastises the Conservative Party and the Conferance Board of Canada.

However, he did use the word fundamentally at least a dozen times in a five minute interview. It looks like he could use an english refresher and a thesaurus.....

Instead of fundamentally Paul Martin could have used primary, basic, principal, or essential.

Are the Liberals in such a weak financial position that they cannot get their leader a thesaurus?
