Title: Liberals and Conservatives almost even in new poll
Post by: Sportsdude on Aug 03 06 08:18
Conservatives 32%

Liberals          31%

  Interesting. Tories are falling like a stack of bricks and the Liberals don't even have a leader. Looks and smells like 1979 all over again for the tories.

  So since Canadian minority governments usually only last 18 months (which means a summer election next year) who do you like out of the Liberals leadership race?

I hadn't previously realised that Gerard Kennedy looked so much like a younger edition of Jerry Springer!

i wonder how much of the drop is due to the fact that more and more canadians are dying in afganistan.

  obviously this poll was done before today, but we just lost 4 more soldiers in combat.

With the supposed "win" in Mexico, that puts conservatives in charge of North America. Lets hope it doesn't last.

The main reasons given are Afghanistan and the Middle East conflict.
