I had a good conversation with a long time Conservative voter who personally knows and has worked with Stephen Harper and a former NDP candidate from almost 10 years ago now. They both agreed that this is the end of the line for Harper. The Conservative lamented the fact that they hadn't captured a majority with two opportunities that they should have. He feels that Harper will never be able to push them over the top.

The NDPer (who is as liberal and left wing as they come) didn't offer much other than that he found it funny that a party that suffered historic losses in popularity would some how deem it's self fit to govern.

The more I hear on it, the more I hate it. This would be fine if the Liberal leader wasn't on his way out. This has zero chance for stability which means nothing is going to change. Just a different face to the same beast. What I can't stand is all the people saying it's against democracy. It's part of the Parliamentary system, it's all or nothing folks. You can't pick and choose what parts work for you and which don't.
