I think the Prime Minister has done a pretty good job over the past 10 years but I think the ideas are getting stale. And even though I agree with a lot of what the CPC has accomplished, the direction the ultra-partisans are taking the party (of which I am a member) is angering me.

I could not agree more with your second paragraph, though I held my nose and voted for them because I liked the candidate in my riding a lot of more than the Liberal or NDP candidate. I also have accepted the Conservatives will likely lose. I think Harper running was a huge mistake and likely will cost them the election. The one thing I like more about American politics is the limit one person can rule for. I wish Canada had something like that. Although I voted CPC, Harper does need to go.
