"But then, there is the "progressive" class ... that aimless mass of Western humanity so burdened by cultural self-loathing that it is to Islam, as ungulates are to lions."
A socialist with a "candidate list" that is supported in Quebec because he said he would repeal the Clarity Act and open the Constitution? A "leader??" that is probably on film that has been bartered to the government of China by the Triads. The man is a security risk to Canada. Cancel all security clearances and restrict his travel until CSIS is done with him.
As a conservative (only slightly to the right of Attila the Hun) I find I've had to change my voting intentions. Following the surge in support for the NDP, and the possibility that they could become the official opposition and lead a socialist coalition of losers, I will have to hold my nose and vote Conservative. There is no chance the that Liberals or NDP would win in central Alberta even if I voted none-of-the-above as was my original intention. But I couldn't live with myself if I voted any way that would allow the madmen of the left to gain so much as a voided ballot. The Conservatives, however, should realize that this is only a vote for the lesser of three evils. During the last election I voted Conservative, but not with the intent that they would spend like drunken sailors, run an administration rife with obfuscation and secrecy, and give the farm away to Quebec.
Frank Graves (EKOS) is not releasing his poll today because he is seeing some very "interesting things". Could it be the new NDP voters are bolting back to the liberals? The other scenario is that the NDP is now leading nationally. I have a feeling it is the former. Jack Layton at a bawdy house helps the libs a lot more then the CPC.
This is OK. The polls are moving so quickly, that no one can predict the outcome, and the trends are in the right direction. Ideally, we would see CPC, about 40%, and the Liberals/NDP tied at 24.5%. I don't begrudge the NDP any seats that they take away from the BLOC.
A word of Yankee advice about outsmarting oneself with "strategic voting". In '92, a lot of centrist-conservative people were bamboozled into voting for 3rd party Presidential candidate Ross Perot, due to their disappointment with Pres. Bush the Elder. All that accomplished was to split the conservative and centrist votes, thereby electing the execrable Bill Clinton by a plurality.
(These folks included my sister and brother-in-law. When he told me how he'd voted, I responded by thanking him for putting Bill Clinton in the White House. He was quite sheepish about that, realizing the truth of my analysis.)
So, my non-leftist Canadian friends, I'd advise you to put your reservations about Harper & Co. aside, holding your nose if necessary, and vote Conservative. Don't outsmart yourselves as a whole bunch of Americans did in '92.

Compare that to Stephen Harper.
