The Conservative Majority Tape

In a recent event for conservative supporters in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Prime Minister Steven Harper was speaking at a meeting that was closed to the media. In his address, the Prime Minister rallied the troops by stating "If they force us to the polls, we have to teach them a lesson and win a majority and make sure the coalition never happens". However, in the audience was a liberal interloper with a video camera. The secret video was then handed over to his political masters. The deep thinkers of the Liberal ivory tower decided to release this incriminating piece of evidence. There intent was to damage the conservatives for daring to use the "M" word. Yet, I believe the real result is a priceless piece of free political advertising. The threat of Liberal-NDP-Bloq coalition is real. If the result of the coming election is another minority conservative government, you can bet dollars to donuts that there will be a re-birth of the coalition. The prospect of this outcome will galvanize Canadians to support the conservatives. Too many elections in too short a time span and a general agreement that the conservative government is doing a good job on the economy, coupled with the specter of a leftist-separatist coalition government will get the soft conservative and swing voters out on election night. The liberals have done the conservatives a favour by releasing their secret tape.
