to me, Mulcair hasn't had a great campaign, he hasn't gained any momentum, and it looks like he's losing some footholes to the Liberals.

To be honest I have to give the Liberals credit, they've run a better campaign then I thought they would. Also the conservatives haven't landed any big body blows on the Liberals, but I think they have been effective wit the "Not ready yet" campaigns.

I do think that the Cons will swing hard over the next month and go after Mulcair harder.

I believe that the Cons will get a strong minority at the end of this with the Liberals in second and NDP in third. Like I said Mulcair I don't think has run a great campaign.
I don't know. I think the big problem for the Conservatives is that they have reached their ceiling. The Liberals and the NDP can still grab some votes and if the strategic voters actually show up and do their thing, the Conservatives could be cooked. I'm really interested to see what happens if the Conservatives finish third in the popular vote but win a minority. I know Trudeau has said he won't form a coalition but I'm not sure I believe that.
