Shhhhh!!

This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler. This is filler.

I’m going to predict a Conservative minority m@j0r1ty tomorrow.

Why?

First, I’m an undying optimist.

Secondly, if I’m actually correct then people will look to me as a guru of great predictions (I did call that Sarah Palin thing, oddly enough, and feel that sufficient praise has not yet been heaped upon me).

Third, I think it is a distinctly possible outcome.

Fourth, if it happens, I am assured by my good friend Andrew that we will drink ourselves stupid in celebration.

Think of the headline in Wednesday’s Globe and Mail: Media Predicted Minority, Paul Holmes Knew Better.

If I’m wrong, please ignore this post. I may even quietly delete it.

So, after careful scientific calculation and considering all the odds (for you gamers, I rolled 5d6 repeatedly until I finally got a Yahtzee), I have come up with the numbers that follow.

Conservatives – 156 (37.4172351%)
BQ – 55 (7.96247%)
Liberal – 54 (24.946691%)
NDP – 41 (20.8961%)
Other/Independent – 2
Green – 0 (6.87214%)

Hey kids, SCIENCE IS FUN!

With the Thanksgiving break, folks got together with family. Naturally, when one has a break from the media and Danny WIlliams telling us how to vote, we go face to face with our parents and prejudices get checked at the door.
When confronted by someone that has seen more than a few election cycles, those less experienced are "enlightened" on the effects of a carbon tax and just what it will really do to those on fixed incomes, and those soon to be on fixed incomes (cough*babyboomers*cough).
I expect the realization of a Harper win will start sinking in about the same time the results come in from Central Nova showing Sister Lizzie May failing to take that seat from Peter MacKay.
The socialists are going to lose this one.

you're all nuts. majority impossible. CPC lucky to get over 133 seats

majority is just too optimistic, but a strong minority!!

Was thinking, PMSH could add to his (very small) cabinet a special committee of MPs re: Quebec issues and appoint 5+ Con MPs, Mulcair & a couple of Libs, all elected in Quebec (no floor crossing required) and no no no Bloc MPs or Trudeau's.
Send the Bloc supporters a signal, if you aren't at the table, yah don't get a say.

The seats that the Liberals will lose, will go somewhere; add a few from the Bloq, Green/Others and then consider the Nanos Poll [not the 3-day average, but Oct 12th numbers] and the undecided votes; watch the leaders last day on CPAC and.... I think you're closer than most uf us are willing to dream.

I sense Quebec is rethinking being left out in the cold without any representation. Even PEI might go blue, so yes with NANOS numbers, a majority is back in play. But shhhh...don't tell the lefties, they might wake up.
Le Politico

Ah ha! I see your majority prediction! :)

Anything could happen.
Sean McAllister

By the title I thought you were going to post the benefits of Dion as PM..snicker.. Yes I hope you are right. I don't wanna move to Alaska.
Raphael Alexander

Strangely enough, Palin is now dragging down the Republican nomination in the polls. I've got your prediction on my poll tracker. You're certainly the most optimistic thus far.
