Canadian Election Tread (part deux)

Basically Duceppe and Layton won?

They were the best scrappers in a largely unrefereed third period of a playoff game.

Won is another matter, but Jack may have saved as many as 5 seats from defection back to the Liberals. Maybe more. So maybe he did what he needed to do, since he was allowed to.

It does. Still don't know if you're joking or not.
If not, are you going to the pride parade?

I am over the parade, but my friends keep dragging me out so I suppose I will be there on the 27th once again.

The one analysis I heard and agree with was that no one 'won' the debate but that Martin, Layton, and Harper did what they had to do. The slim possibility of a Conservative Majority is now gone and the race may be even more competitive for the last two weeks. Look for a nail-biting finish on June 28.

... and Duceppe did very well.

I can't ****ing wait. It's been so long since we had a real election. It feels like Christmas is coming.

I can't agree with that. The consensus was that Harper was not scarey, if maybe a bit boring.

The only thing standing between him and a very narrow majority is the scare campaign. Let's see how much traction that has after 4 hours of going to sleep while listening to him describe Parliamentary procedure and free votes.

Just one note, NYE: scary. scary scary scary.

Scarey is a children's author...

Also, I do not come from Quebec, but it seems that one good point Harper may have made (more than once, last night and tonight) is that the Bloc is not a way for Quebec to change governments.

Speaking of which, a young middle aged man from Montreal is on CBC right now saying he may vote Conservative for the first time in his life.

Is he young, or middle-aged? He can't be both!

I'm turning forty and I can assure you that you can be.

We interrupt ongoing debate coverage for this editorial cartoon from today's Vancouver Province.

You ever posted a picture NYE (here or CG)?

I have no ****ing clue what you look like. Always imagine the Esso tiger typing away furiously (was going to say Tony the tiger, but figured I'd work in a petro joke).

[notyoueither]

I have one that I've always wanted to post. It is very indicative. Just never got it scanned.

Go digital, you barbarian.
