It's the same thing with the NDP in many ridings. Many people support them verbally, but when the cards are on the table, many of their softline supporters vote for the Liberals.

Personally, I am pretty disappointed with all 3 major federalist parties, that I doubt I will vote for them. If I hated either of them enough, I might vote for one of them to try and help the other lose... but at this point, I don't hate them either. I'm not conservative enough to want to vote for Harper, but at this point, I'm not ready to throw the baby out with the bath water so to speak. Changing governments too often is inefficient and I'd rather wait until there is more to judge him on.
