I see what you're saying, but I think the Conservatives losing a riding in the heart of Calgary, whether it's Liberal, Green of NDP, will have a massive ripple-effect throughout Canadian Politics. Sure the Conservatives can spin it on lower turnout and what not, but all three parties, regardless of who wins, will use it to show that the Conservatives are losing the respect of Canadians. It'll be a PR nightmare for Harper's Government.
