    It's really more anti-Bush than anti-US, so there hasn't been much precedent for it.

      I haven't followed this too closely, but that seems highly optimistic to me.

        That's what I thought. But those are the numbers I end up with, after looking at each riding.

              Maybe, but he is in the range of the possible. That said, I am expecting a conservative result more in the range of 125-145.

              Liberal 70-100 (85)

                    That wasn't my prediction, I was relaying the EPP's final numbers.

                    I'll go with:

                    CON 125
                    LIB 92
                    BQ 59

                        Well, given that yours actually adds up to 308, let's go with that.

                                From the previous thread:

                                Ben Kenobi:
                                I saw the Liberal campaign ads, and the Liberals are outright lying!
                                I wonder if the Liberals shot themselves in the foot with their negative adds. They had a very distasteful smell about them and made me immediately think "I'd never vote for a party that's so obviously trying to con me." Because Liberal credibility has declined so much over the past couple of years, I bet these adds produced similar effects in many others.

                                If you're going to smear the opposition you have to do it from the high moral ground, not a swamp of "Lies, scandal, corruption". (We drove past the Liberal Winnipeg South Centre campaign headquarters on our way to a hockey game a couple of days ago and there was a guy standing nearby and carrying a placard with that on it.)
