I think there is a very good chance we get a liberal majority out of this, I think we're going to see CPC supporters who voted in the past less motivated to vote while the I hate harper voters are very motivated to get out there.

A lot of my friends who have in the past shown no interest in politics are out there and engaged and trying to get all their friends out, and none of that is good for Harper. I think in Calgary alone there is a good chance 4-5 of the 10 ridings go red, not good in a city where last election every CPC candidate won at least 56% of the vote. Does anyone even remember the last time Calgary elected one non CPC/canadian alliance/reform/PC candidate yet alone multiple ones in the same election?
