I know this has been said a lot but I disagree with it. I think the reason the Conservatives won their majority is because people (especially Ontario residents!) did not like Michael Ignatieff and therefore booted the Liberal party very hard in the ass.
The NDP for the most part kicked the Bloc out of Parliament and picked up a few seats in the other provinces but I don't think they were the main contribution to the victory by the CPC tonight.
