As long as Rob Anders holds office, any candidate is going to look stellar. Hell, I'd even vote for Oscar Fech before Anders again.

In the Ontario by-election, the Conservative candidate is smoking the field.

Sources are saying that the earliest polls in are the advance polls, which favour Crockatt, which is good news for the other candidates.

Doesn't look like Meades is going to hit that 8% some were predicting.

He's the son of our super popular long-lasting MPP in what has recently been a Conservative stronghold. It doesn't surprise me one bit that he's killing the field.

I look and see only one Liberal candidate.
Its not like a Green is an NDPer, or a Liberal is a Green....if that was the case, then they should run as such. It was a lame argument when the coup was attempted and its a lame argument now.

Mrs Furnace and I debated if we were going to vote at all. Ultimately we decided to go as we figured someone might as well vote in this thing..and there was the carrot of getting greek food and gas from Super Save Gas.
We weren't voting for the wingnut and we figured the others were splitting so weren't sure. Mrs. Furnace made the argument Locke doesn't or hasn't lived in the city so what does he know? I'll call it the Ignatief decision. We picked Turner because he seemed to have a brain (knowing full well he was unlikely to win).

Ya because it's not like a reformer is a PC or a PC is a reformer. Vote splitting makes no difference right?
They might not all go to the one banner if they united but if you claim that if the Greens weren't in that race in Calgary tonight and Crockatt still wins, you're full of ####.
The PCs should actually fund the Green party next election.

Fair point, but the platforms of the Liberals, NDP, and Green are far more similar to each other than they are to the Conservatives. Its simplistic to look at it strictly in terms of left and right, and yet, it is difficult to deny that there is one party on the right, and three parties on the left (1calgarycentre is of course a reaction to this simple observation.)

There is one Liberal candidate but one could argue three liberal candidates, just as there is one Conservative candidate but two conservative candidates (Have no idea on the leanings of the Independent)
