A new poll has come out from Ipsos-Reid showing that the Conservatives and Liberals are stuck in "trench warfare." Numbers have hardly deviated from the 2006 results: Liberals at 29% and Tories at 35%. There have been ups and downs in numbers throughout the year, but support just returns to where it was before.

I will indeed by very happy with another Harper minority if it means a leader other than Ignatieff and the Liberal Party FINALLY gets its act together. The sooner Liberals realize this (you'd think they would have by NOW) the better.
