Prime Minister Stephen Harper's campaign is not in decline.

This country is.

I'm mad as Hell that our media is interfering in this election. Their job is to report the news, not bend it out of shape to benefit any one political party.They've really overstepped their bounds.

The problem with Frankenstein's monster is that it eventually turns on the one who made it. The MSM in the long run won't get away with this. They may have to live with the severely negative consequences of, God-forbid, a Liberal government. If that happens, Canada's in the toilet.

At the top of my wish list? Stephen Harper and the CPC win a majority and the Right Honourable Stephen Harper lets loose and kicks butt.

You are most likely right, the only reason I figured that long was that it will take time for the Liberals and NDP to built up another war chest or pay for the present one. Also if the Conservatives do win Dion will be dropped into the lion's den by his own party ie. Ray and Ignatieff. Dion could buy some time if he can keep it close.

Both Layton and Dion should be ashamed for trying to fuel panic in our stock markets, just to try to win votes. Absolutely shameful, they would put this country at such risk, just to try to score some votes.

Best thing that could happen to the Conservative campaign, is for the TSX to rebound steadily over the next few days. I would estimate for every 200 point rebound in the TSX, that Conservative support would go up 1% in all the polls.

You'll have to forgive “Terry”, as he was only born into Canadian politics less than 2 years ago and has been living under a rock ever since.

Least thats what the rest of us are lead to believe due to his ignorant beliefs and unwavering support for the Liberals….. of all groups… No doubt this guy is another plant? hmmm… I wonder.

Two and a half years? I'll not fault you for being optimistic, but I say we'll be doing this within 15 months +/- 1 month.

I just read the following article:

The ekos polls shows Harper gaining and the story appears in a paper from India and not a canadian source.
The media bias is getting beyond reason.

MSM cheering Dion all the way. Anyone else notice the reporting? Cheerleading. Over the past two weeks, there has been a distinct difference in how Harper and Dion have been covered by the 3 main networks.

You think a banner reading “Harper under fire” would be balanced off with “Dion being criticized for…” But following “Harper under fire” is “Dion slams Harper”. Any one else notice the lack of criticism reported of Dion lately? Everytime he’s featured on the 3 main networks it’s the same pattern. No critism of Dion for anything. Harper coverage filled with Dion attacks on Harper; Dion coverage filled with Dion attacks on Harper.

And that reporter who was jeered today spoke volumes of MSM bias. He rhetoirical added at the end of his question (paraphrasing). “How do you feel about asking people who are losing their jobs to just go to the stock market and look for bargains?” Harper taken totally out of context. What’s new? If Harper ever said, “I plan to win on election night, I beleive I will defeat my opponents”, the headline would be, “Harper Plots To Destroy Anyone Who Gets In His Way”
