Among other bloggers discussing the latest revelations of Liberal scandals, are various polls discussing the ratings and comparisons and opinions of polled citizens about their choices and preferences in the upcoming election. All seem to clearly point to an increase in support for the Conservatives, and a decline for the Liberals. All to the good, as far as I can see, and depending on which you choose to believe, some are more positive than others..

I think it worth remembering that these charts and polls are selected from a fairly small pool and/or organizations.

They really can't be taken as gospel, no matter how much one would like. The way this election is playing out, there are 3 possible scenerios..

1. a return to much the same as when the election was called..
2. a minority Conservative government, requiring continual negotiations with either the Bloc, or the 'blackmailing' NDP [remeber that they will cut a deal with whatever government, despite basic differences in philosophy, to get their way].
3. a majority Conservative Govt.

Personally I would love to see the public in BC and Ontario finally 'get it' by the end of this campaign and vote for change and we could get option 3. Option 2 is more likely at this point in my opinion, and if option 1 is the result, then expect that we will have this all over again within a year.
