Just to review:
1) Harper and the rest are scared that Martin will pull the plug and let the electorate decide
2) Harper insists that the GG should look and see if a coalition government can be put together.
He was right then, and his opinion then is right now |
Hahahaha, how am I wrong? That is exactly what I said. BTW, at that point,
Harper wanted an election. Martin was getting worked in the polls and the only reason the government survived any longer as because Martin and Layton got together and sold out the taxpayers for a few more months of power.
If you honestly think that Harper or the Conservatives ever thought they could work with the NDP for more than 30 seconds, than you need to stop posting in here.
