I think a majority government is out of the question in any form.
I think we'll have a short lived minority government and another election within 12 to 18 months.

Did anyone see a majority coming last time? Anything could happen.
I honestly thought there would be some type of coalition government formed since the country was so split back then. Then lo and behold, Jack Layton kills it at the debate stealing votes from the Liberals in Quebec, Ignatieff and the liberals kept shooting themselves in the foot with blunder after blunder, and Harper just kept chugging along at status quo, shockingly getting a majority.
I would be MORE shocked with a majority this time, but my gut is that CPC win a minority. I think an average voter probably feels global politics and economics are still a little shaky, best keep the devil you know.
