No one I know gives a sh*t about the war, it's all about gay marriage to everyone I know...
It's the end of any hope that Canada will adopt Bush style politics. Yay!!!
I think I'll write to the Toronto Sun and ask them to stop pretending that they represent the views of the majority of ordinary Canadians – it's been four elections now.Only feebs vote.

The media is declaring victories way too early.
They're saying Layton has won, but he's only 500 votes ahead and only 105 of 195 polling stations have reported.
Olivia Chow is being declared a loser, but that's based on reports from 70 out of 234 polling stations.Golfing since 67

Well, Landslide Annie's in for another tough one...
Let's hope she can pull it off!

Well, this is certainly interesting...
There was certainly the potential, during this election, for Canada to wind up taking a sharp turn to the right. Instead, it seems like we'll be easing left instead.
Martin in the driver's seat with Yappy Jack talking in his ear... Eh, things could be worse.

Also, interesting to see on the CBC side-scroller: watch for the actual numbers in the rural Alberta ridings... They're not even close. Usually the Conservative candidate has won with about 10,000 votes to the Lib & NDP's thousand each. Just ridiculously one-sided. I knew the Conservative grip on seats in rural Alberta was strong, but these numbers are RIDONKULOUS.
In the Edmonton ridings, things are noticeably... tighter."I wrote a song about dental floss but did anyone's teeth get cleaner?" -Frank Zappa

Another interesting phenomenon: in most Calgary ridings, the third-place party (behind victorious Cons and second-place Grits) is not the NDP, but the Greens."I wrote a song about dental floss but did anyone's teeth get cleaner?" -Frank Zappa
