Wynne is finished, the Liberals are headed for third party standing. But Horwath is pretty terrible, all three of them are. but I figure that this is going to be a Conservative Minority.

Even the Toronto Star which is notoriously Left centric, said that except for Ford being stiff and his comment on Wynne's smile with stood the tag team attack well.
Except they did, he came across as a bumbling idiot who couldn't answer any of the questions about where he was making his cuts and where he is actually getting his dollars from. Combine that with the fact his party hired actors to cheer for him and also have hired their own reporters to interview him and people don't trust anything he says. Wynne is finished, I agree there. What you will see though is people who have traditionally voted Liberal which is a large base of Ontario are going to throw their vote behind Horwath this time around because her platform is close to their own parties and because they don't want Ford and his PC's in. I think the Liberals are going to finish lower than any of the big three have in voting history because their supporters are going to throw their support to the NDP.
