Polling is a lot harder in Canada too.  The "All politics is local" phrase is increased in huge magnitude in Canada.

Harper lost 4 cabinet members tonight.  All from Quebec.  The NDP surge there ended up hurting the Conservatives, and that's the one dark spot in an otherwise great night for the Conservatives.

Gary Lunn, Minister for Sports also lost in Saanich-Gulf Islands.

Forgot about him, and CBC didn't list him  as a Cabinet Minister.

I only watched about 30 min's worth of CBC online coverage but I enjoyed it. I learned quite a bit too. I just wish another US channel besides C-Span 2 would show stuff like this

Being able to watch CBC on TV was nice.  I was able to get the first half hour live before they launched results on their website.

Bob Rae is sounding open to an NDP-Liberal merger.

He would have a bit more credibility if he were a member of the NDP, wouldn't he?
He was a member of the NDP. Huh

Exactly my point.

Well, him being a member of the NDP in the past may allow him to bridge that gap if a merger is introduced.  Now that Ignatieff has resigned, if Rae does become the next leader, I could see it happening.  If Justin Trudeau is chosen as the next leader, I don't know that he'd be pushing for a merger.
