At this point in the rhetoric, no matter what the Governor General decides, she's going to come across as pandering to one party or the other.

If she chooses the coalition (which I suspect she is obligated to do), the Conservatives will spend the next few months whining about how she is a Liberal supporter.

If she chooses to call an election, the coalition will accuse her of caving into Harper's demands.
