Honestly, I feel that if this goes to an election, Harper will be left holding the political bag of poop in this case--I very much doubt that he will be picking up more seats than he won 6 weeks ago. Where are these seats going to come from? Quebec? Not likely. The maritimes? Don't bet on it. Ontario? A liberal party under new leadership will likely make modest gains in Ontario.
If the Conservatives thought they could win a January election, they wouldn't be waving the white flag so hard.
