trackback
- Noted Green Party Activist Stephane Dion attempts to change the Liberal brand at the eleventh hour. He’s competing with Stephen Harper to see who has more empathy, for Pete’s sake. (Dion is accused of lacking substance, but the election is Tuesday, so there might not be time for that idea to percolate.)
- Holy cow, someone says that parties are fragmented. This is shocking to all of us.
- William Johnson claims that Stephen Harper’s majority will be destroyed by the US economic crisis, rather than merely being nonviable in the first place. (Opposing view.)
- Globe and Mail endorsements: Harper is moderate and competent. Dion is inflexible. Jack Layton is not a serious challenge.
- The Tories won’t get a majority. The question is whether a left coalition will congeal into a government.
