I hadn't put much stock into it, but I'm now thinking that indeed people were influenced at thanksgiving dinners by family members.

The only thing I'm taking comfort in with these results is that the Harper Cons were only capable of a minority - even when running against the weakest Liberal party in Liberal party history.
Actually when you think about it, Glover is a pretty good fit for St.B

Despite her suburban hockey mom appeal, she is also Metis and speaks fluent French.
