So your saying that Ignatieff and Layton and Duceppe are dupes then?

I agree with the above poster, there are scandals in the government nobody is arguing it. But as the days go by we're not seeing the traction that the opposition needed. I think that there is voter exhaustion in terms of elections and it balances off against the Contempt charges and even the draft release of the AG report (Personally I think that it was really premature of the opposition to try to use it for a weapon).

Right now if the polls are to be believed, the conservatives are hovering in the possible majority area, and thats going to be the message over the next three weeks, "Nobody wants another election in the next 6 months, so a vote for the conservatives is a vote for a break to the voters"
