Tory's Meltdown

There are now two polls out giving the Liberals a ten point lead - an SES came out today in addition to the Ipsos poll I wrote about in my last post.

Tory's reversal does not fix his problem - see this Star story about the first day following his turnabout. However, the flip flop will be helpful to a few incumbents in already safe ridings who were no doubt being tormented about the issue by their strongest traditional supporters. The whole affair simply makes him look ridiculous.

Right now we are looking at a repeat of 2003 although I sense at least some limited opportunity here for the NDP to get into the 12 to 15 seat range.
