Ugh, Harper's speech and he's still prattling on about election issues.

The downfall of the Conservatives this election is that the campaign was not long enough.

Hehr keeps getting closer. I think he's got it. Grant on the other hand has an uphill climb.

Well that escalated quickly. No one really could have seen the liberal going from under 40 seats to near 200.

It was all starting to unravel over the last few years. It happens to every party when they get too comfortable. Extending the election was probably a big down fall for Harper much like the early election was a killer for Prentice.
I'm optimistic that the Conservatives will work hard and fast at rebuilding and winning the next election. I know there are a lot of bright, young and capable members that can become effective leaders.

Calgary Centre has at least given us a little drama. Should be very tight to the end.
