If Ignatief doesn't come out and say that he'll do a coalition, it will dog him the entire campaign. If he does, then he'll be dogged about each policy announcement or platform of the NDP and how that fits with his party's.
If the Canadian public is ok with having Bob rae and Jack Layton rubbing their greedy hands above the public purse strings, then Igantief will be Prime Minister. If they prefer to have Harper ignoring basically all of the procedural rules in the interest of getting things done, then it will be a Harper majority.
That's the choice.

That's a whole lot of characterization, but I gotta admit, your analysis appears to be spot-on. Nicely summarized.
