Originally posted by MarkT Dion is not the ideal leader, IMHO, but Harper is a complete douchebag. I much prefer the Liberal platform too (which can be downloaded as a pdf from this page: http://www.liberal.ca/platform_e.aspx )

+1 to both of these.

Originally posted by djbruuen well to make them feel better, they can create the same poll in the montreal section and include the bloc. Since Ontario residents can't vote for them, I decided not to add them.

It's not that we *can't* vote for them, they just don't have any candidates running in Ontario.

I'm a member of the Liberal party.. take a guess who I'm voting for

sadly, I think more will tune in to the U.S. VP debate to see if Palin trainwrecks.

Originally posted by Moral Hazard This would seem to be the more important criteria on which to base a vote (IMO) rather then the relative douchebaggery of one leader to another.

absolutely...but leadership is relevant. While there is no way I would vote CPC with Harper as leader, I also wouldn't vote Liberal if I didn't believe in the platform. I'd throw away a vote to the NDP or Green as a protest, lol.

Anyone who dislikes the CPC and is contemplating NOT voting Liberal should at least take a look at the platform before making up their mind though, IMHO.

Layton is not PM material (but might make an interesting leader of the opposition) and the Green party will be lucky to win a seat or two.

And Dion would make a stellar PM?

Harper is bad, but not as bad as Dion.

This is going to be the worst election ever, ending in another minority government.

No surprise there, always been a looser.

I'd kill to have an election as interesting as the Obama/McCain tet-a-tete.

agreed. there's just been so much hype about it. thanks to the front page news of the local newspaper to the SNL opening skits, this is really going to draw a large portion of viewers away from the canadian debates.

15 voting for Liberals!!!??! you guys are nuts!

Don't worry, half of them will forget to vote.

meh.

half of the Liberal supporters *could* forget to vote in my riding and we may still win, lol.

Bill Graham had more than double the votes of the 2nd place NDP candidate in the last election and I expect that Bob Rae will easily hold the riding for the Liberals this time around.

(this is not a recommendation to be complacent...so get out there and vote! lol)

edit: tee French debate is starting now for anyone who cares (and it's translated for the biligual-challenged :P )

The sad part is that I honestly can't argue with you here.

Fortunately the rest of the country isn't brain-damaged.

listening to it on the radio.... very tame and meh.

I'm surprised that May has magically enhanced her french in so little time.

I think she *easily* relegated Layton to the minor player.

Duceppe again impressed me, as he did during previous debates. He's Low on frills, direct, engaging and intelligent.

Dion has been 'ok', but hardly inspiring.

Harper has been feeling everyone's wrath. There has been little in-fighting amongst the opposition leaders, with Harper being the target of almost all questions/criticisms. He was all but gang-raped on the environment earlier on and just doesn't seem to be defending well on any of the topics.

Haper shouldn't benefit at all from this debate...but will any single opposition party make a significant gain? I don't know.

If he was anything but a Block, I'd easily vote for him.

Dude is smart as hell. He could easily be PM if he ran for Libs or Cons. Or even NDP for that matter

Separatists are all morons




Seriously, the debate sounded like an academic panel on reptilian reproduction.

I think the debate tomorow should be more intresting and fluid.

Well, if you're the prime example of a separatist...

Probably 3 out of 5 can't think in French, let alone speak the language properly.
Actually, 4 out of 5 leaders can't think. Period
