    Could it be that […] voters were more interested in ideas and policies than tirades and drive-by smears?

    This.

    “Hair guy bad, vote me and it’ll be better; because it will, that’s why” is a terrible platform. But it’s all I’ve seen. There’s been nothing positive that will help regular (non-rich) Canadians; and an endorsement by Mr Harper has less value away from the Tuscany region of Calgary.

    Personally, I like how our Orange conscience is beating up the Red a bit. We could get some properly-funded actual benefits where every study shows they will actually do the most good (ie no trickle-down lies). If the odds of a Majority-Red government really are low, and we have the chance of someone (other than the cruel conservatives) working as Justin’s conscience, that could continue the growth we’ve seen, and that would be a very good thing.
