Back to Hehr. I believe he is losing support for two reasons. One, his mayors run. Some don't like that he didn't step down, others don't like being sloppy seconds and not knowing if he will do it again. Two, as I understand it, he and his supporters have been telling people at the door he is willing to cross the floor to the PC's in minority situation. You either stand for something or nothing at all.

That last statement is even more true for Morton.

BTW: I never predicted a Blanchard win, just a Hehr loss.
Ok, sorry to put words in your mouth, I thought you said you would vote for him specifically. I don't think that the mayoral race hurts him at all. I can see why it might cause a few to look another way, but really he was never going to win every vote in the riding.

The floor crossing is news to me. I can tell you that I haven't heard anything to that effect and I would. I think that any innuendo to that effect is coming from other campaigns, as well as rumors that he might be losing.
