So you admit that much of what we are currently seeing in Harper may be nothing but a ploy to get a majority and that once he achieves his task he may change his policies 180 degrees?

LOL

I agree btw... I just didn't think too many Harper supporters would admit it.

No, what we are seeing Harper do now is quite similar to what he will do with a majority.

Social conservatives only count for a small percentage of the current party.

A 180 degree change in policies would guarantee the party would be decimated in the first election after gaining a majority.

Harper has made sure the Conservatives are built to last.

All the talk of *scary* *scary* *scary* if Harper ever became Prime Minister was patently false.

The new line of *scary* *scary* *scary* if Harper wins a majority it equally false.

Sorry to disappoint.

Were you one of those who thought Harper would be scarier as Prime Minister than he has been?

Harper is eating your children:

  1. In the kitchen;
  2. At 24 Sussex Drive;
  3. In Ottawa;
  4. In Ontario;
  5. In Canada

I'm not making this up. I couldn't possibly make it up.

I agree with you 1000%, however there is a part of me that wants to believe that Harper did what he did to get the majority. A Harper majority would not give in to QB, I want to believe that. Minority gov't work differently, as I am sure you know.

I just think regardless of political party, you have to "tiptoe" softly with a minority gov't. No I do not think Harper will turn into Dracula with a majority, altough it would make the next G8 meeting more interesting...

Is it not the goal of EVERY party to get a majority........
