I can't think of a worse set of leadership options. I don't really want to see any of the current party leaders as PM.
Ignatief has a lot of work to do if he and the Liberals are going to take even a minority win. Reading the papers, I just don't get the feeling that Canadians are all that outraged by what the Conservatives have done. Frankly, the scandals they have been involved with have not resulted in taxpayer money being misspent. If the kind of outrage that brought Rob Ford to power in Toronto can be brought to bear on Harper, you will see a shift in the polls. I just don't think there is enough passion about this. The swing votes don't care enough one way or the other.
The election campaign can shift all of this but I don't hold any hope that it will. As much as I dislike Harper, he knows how to run a tight and focused campaign.
Unless Ignatief can some how become more appealing to the swing vote, and I don't see how, it will be another Conservative minority.
