I heard it both ways today... Stevie 1's an asshole. Mike's an asshole (and, of course, Jack who?). I agree. Well, in a way.

But I heard one take from a lady about 80 years old at the grocery store. Paraphrasing... "I hate that Harper but he's going to get a majority because people don't trust that lying son-of-a-gun and you mark my word he's a Johnny Come Home For Dinner businessman who owes a lot down there (US). How dare him criticize the PM for sending those planes to Libya when he had no choice because of the way we cowtow to the Americans these days when we all know he would have sent those planes faster than Harper. They're all liars and they don't care how they spend our money... MY money... YOUR money. $4.49 a pound for smelts... for SMELTS! An election is not what we need right now and that Ignatieff caused it. SAID he was going to cause it no matter what." That's the short version. Glad I was at the express checkout. I thought she was gonna blow a gasket.
