In the past few weeks, if not days, talk of a Tory majority started to gain traction in the media. Not long ago Vincent Marissal, of La Presse, ran a not-exceptionally-positive article about the current Government and PM while treating the prospect of a majority like a real possibility.
The same day, he invited comments on his blog regarding his interview with Agop Evereklian, our exceptional candidate in Pierrefonds-Dollard, who remarked Canadians and Quebecers should trust Harper with a majority.
When the Globe and Mail shocks you by saying it's high time for a strong Tory majority, you know something's abrew.
I don't want to jinx our chances, yet I must admit that the rhetoric is changing significantly. As people realise "nasty tory" scare stories are baloney - and just how incapable the opposition is - this time we're in for a good one.
Whenever I am faced by the usual drivel of "hidden agendas" and similar idiocy, I cant help reminding that muppet that it is common sense, Cnada's interest and Tory MPs from Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic that will ensure a moderate government. When times are tough, you can't afford liberal airheads or "I like minority governments" indecision. Canadians should grow up, grow a pair and vote Tory next time so Canada can have a clear course for the next four years. God knows how much in these times we need one!

People have two choices; either we have a conservative government lead by PM Harper or we have a coalition government of Bloc, NDP & Liberals lead by Ignatieff while giving the veto to the Bloc.

The only way the media's darlings are going to get into power any time soon, is by a coalition majority.
So of course they are advancing 'majority' talk.
Preparing the soil for the coalition of losers to take another run at government.
In the recent past, majority discussion has been used to drive down Conservative support. Raising the prospect this far before and election, however, may backfire.
