It's not just about changing minds. Polling is one thing, voting is another. Getting your supporters out to actually cast a ballot requires organization and work. Making calls, driving seniors to polling stations, etc.. The PCs have a lot of experience at this, and a lot of resources. The other parties don't.

How many people who say they will vote NDP will stay home on election night because they had a rough commute, or they couldn't get anyone to watch the kids, or they want to crack a beer and get ready to watch the game?
