If you enjoy true message board meltdowns, check out the comments section.
If this has already been mentioned before just ignore this, but apparently this isn't that much of a surprise to anyone who's followed the G&M for the last few elections. It was mentioned in the comments of a couple G&M articles at the beginning of the Election, but the trend for the Globe over the past few elections has been to constantly choose the Conservatives.

It's odd for a paper to have a heavy left slant of opinion and editorial articles and then go the complete opposite way for it's editorial endorsement. I wasn't surprised to see that this morning, but it is still a bit of a head scratcher.
