I would say that their polling theme song is "Sinking Like a Sunset" by Tom Cochrane, but I know how much Harper appreciates Canadian culture, it is more likely "Free Falling" by Tom Petty....
That is an interesting question; I don't think there's any way that the Conservatives lose this election, but that doesn't mean that the Conservatives shouldn't consider a leadership review. The only PM to have two consecutive minority governments stepped down before the next election. I'd put it to the Conservative supporters on this board: how many seats does Harper need to win to secure his job for another full term? 110? 130? 154? Would anyone within the party vocally call for him to step down while he's still PM?
