I dont think the Liberals are dead. Yah they are wounded and they have some internal budget issues to work out but lets say had the Bloc won the seats in Quebec instead of the NDP, I dont think people would be pronouncing the death of the Liberals so quickly.

They do have some fundraising issues to work out but they still have a strong brand and with the right leader (not sure who that is) they could easily be back in the fold.

For a down-the-middle voter to vote Conservative or Liberal given the way the wind blows is one thing. But for that voter to vote NDP or Green outside of the big cities, that is still an unknown outside of Quebec.

Ontario and BC Liberal provincial governments havent helped the Federal party out alot and that was normally the strength. I think you will likely see 1 more election where Quebec gets some decent NDP support but if all they can muster is minority in a majority gov then its probable that QC voters will give the Libs or Bloc another try.

IMO
