2770...Tories Lead In Ontario

Like, doh.

It was in yesterday's National Post.

"If an election were held today, Tim Hudak's Progressive Conservative party would get 36% support among decided voters, narrowly defeating the Liberals (35%), according to the poll conducted for the National Post, Global Television and NewsTalk 1010 Radio."

Here is the surprising part. After the Premier brought in the HST and did a few other little tinkers with the everyday financial lives of Ontario's residents it is surprising that Mr. Hudak is not farther ahead.

That said, when it comes time to vote next fall, well, when the positive impact of the HST et. al. has trickled into the economy, when the great things the Liberals have done this century are illuminated by the light of an election it will be another four years over there for Mr. Hudak and his gang.

  2. I would be cautious about Tim Hudak. I don't think his handlers will present Hudak as the second coming of Mike Harris. Personally, I think they will make him out to be a "Progressive" Conservative. My guess is that Hudak will not actively support funding for private religious schools. However, he may opt for "better choice in education." It will be hard to pin him down on that.
