If you watched CBC last night, they were about 20 minutes later then everyone else calling the majority. From that point on, Mansbridge wanted nothing to do with the panel that was breaking down the (crushing Liberal) numbers, or to Amanda Lange who was doing the social media aspect...he kept going back to the insider panel as a crutch (as well as the two Liberal guys on video conference) trying to find some explanation and silver lining in this.

Certainly subdued and hard to hold back his disappointment....whether it be his love of Liberals, meh attitude to Harper, or, maybe the fact that his potential gig as a Liberal MP is down the toliet as long as the Libs are, whatever it was, it turned out to be the dullest (and usually its the best) of the major networks.

The panel was good as always, but Mansbridge (who I don't normally mind) was about as engaged and enthused as an Oilers fan in early March.
