I have no issue with the Conservatives forcing an election... any time but now. I do not want them to force an election based on the Gomery commission when Gomery hasn't even finished, and I think that is generally how most people feel.
Most people are all fired up about Adscam. Most want to see the crooks brought to justice BUT they want the whole picture. The Conservatives came off as opportunistic in a bad way. They reacting in a knee-jerk fashion rather than just waiting patiently for the final verdict.
I also think that most people believed that an election would provide us with just about the same sort of situation as we are in right now.
Oddly, what seems to be happening is that the Conservatives have come to represent much of Rural Canada vs. the Liberals representing an more Urban base.
