I wonder if the NDP peaked early, and the Liberals can become the anti-Harper vote. Especially after Mulcair singing Thatcher's praises, back tracking on the magnitude of corporate tax hikes, alluding to austerity to not run deficits, and causing the cancellation of the women's issues debate. It's a long race!

There is so far only one poll showing a drop for the NDP in Ontario, and it's the Nanos four-week tracker. We will have to wait a bit to see if that is a trend that other pollsters pick up.
