Libs lead

Libs 37, Tories 27, NDP 21 but opinion is volatile. Regardless, the Tories plan to keep pull no punches once Parliament resumes. No doubt the media will say this is desparation or an unwise move, but aren't they just doing what they are elected to do? That is, oppose and hold to account.

In related news, in the month before the budget vote in the Commons, the Grits made 450 patronage appointments. A total coincidence I'm sure, and an occurance so common in modern politics there is no outrage, only resolution to the reality of it all.
