I just can't by the argument the Liberals are more Ethical than the Conservatives, even if every point you raised was true.

Does that mean that Harper should get a free pass for his scandals because previous governments were also bad? People need to be held accountable for their actions. Just because Chretien (and Mulroney before him, and Trudeau before him, etc.) also had scandals doesn't mean the current guys in power are off the hook.
Now, if you want to say that the economy is your #1 issue with everything else secondary, and you support the CPC because you believe they have the best platform in that area, I'm ok with that. Just don't sweep the indiscretions of The Harper Government(TM) under the table and pretend they don't matter because previous governments also had scandals.
