Because Prentice called a snap election in a bid to take advantage of an unprepared opponent after Wildrose's leaders betrayed the party and left it drifting. I can't say whether Jean would have fared better if Prentice had waited six months for the call, but I can say that at no point in Jim's wildest dreams did he ever think the NDP would be a threat. His arrogance should not be forgotten as a major contributing factor this mess we currently 'enjoy'.
