The media was all over the conservatives today.
The media is throwing itself into the story. A reporter was screaming she was assaulted by the big bad tories in quebec and the media is speculating how much it will hurt them.
The media is also making a big deal that harper wanted to focus on the campaign and didn't want anymore press conferences.
The media is throwing everything at harper to keep Paul Martin in power.
Polls were off 6-7 points last time and the media is going all out after harper.
The conservatives will be under 120 seats. The election will be decided in 905 in ontario and how many bloc voters vote conservative in ontario.
Looking at the races I have the liberals getting at least 103 seats. If the liberals can tip over 12 more close seats they put Paul Martin back in a minority govt.
Harper needs 115 seats to win. Right now it looks about
119 conservative 34 percent
103 liberal 31 percent
58 bloc
28 ndp
Harper needs to stop the bleeding from yesterday
That's hard to do when the media is so downright biased.
The front page of every newspaper is full of negative atricles. Harper needs to stay the course. People can see through the liberal media B.S. It's the exact same crap they did in 2004. Quebec is better than the media is reporting, and some poles show Harper in the 40% range.
With a shift towards the NDP for some die-hard liberal voters, That may just split the vote enough to give Harper a seat as well. So while a poll may say the seat is going NDP or Liberal, it may actually go to the Harper's PC's.
Last election Harper would have won many more seats if the NDP would have siphoned off a few more liberal votes.
