The purpose of these posts is to regularily interview someone I caonsider a fairly typical Ontario Liberal voter who can be swayed by the campaigns. The idea is to follow the attitudes and perceptions of this person as a barometer to how the campaigns are going and what the composition of the government might be after 23 Jan.

Election day voting.
Dad decided to “give Harper a chance” and voted Conservative. I think this may be what many people from Ontario are thinking.
If there is going to be a long term political shift to the right in Canada, similar to what we have seen in the US, it will depend a lot on what the Conservatives are able to do as the government.

I said early on that Harper had to lead a main stream party and they had to show what they would do for the centrists in order to win. I recall that at that time you scoffed at the idea of being "like the liberals". The fact is they played that game of being non threatening and also inclusive.
Funny how things work out...
