One thing that puzzles me is the absolute hate I remember towards the Mulroney gov't, even here in the West...but Harper seems to get a pass because too many people see "wonky goof" instead of someone who is crooked. Mulroney was overt enough of a slime that people caught on right away. So many people here are totally fooled by Harper. It's so frustrating.

But happy about the NDP's numbers. Excited to see how they do out here in the West. I hope the momentum's on their side in October!
