They also believe that after that majority, we wouldn't see another Conservative party in power for the next 10 - 20 years.

And that's why you wouldn't see the predicting rise of social conservatism - because the tories would want to remain in power and by pushing their social agenda too hard that wouldn't happen.
I don't doubt that the people felt genuinely that way, or suggest their naive, but if they are working for the NDP campaign - they have a pretty clear bias.
