Judging by reading the #tcot twitter stream (“top conservatives on twitter”) and sites like this one (claiming 50,000 hits in less than 2 days online), it appears rather than learning that reality > ideological fantasy, conservatives are intstead opting to double-down on ideological fantasy and are busy constructing an even

The Happy Wanderer: America Moves a Few Inches to the Left
For the most part the U.S political climate has remained the same. The White House resident is still a democrat, the senate is still controlled by democrats and the House is controlled by Republicans. But I think in all it is a win for left wing of the country, and shows to some extent

“Republican lawmakers are grumbling about the direction of Mitt Romney’s campaign and say he needs to change course. The complaints come as polls show that Romney lost ground on President Obama following the party’s respective conventions in Tampa, Fla. and Charlotte, N.C. The GOP members say Romney must do a

The PQ leader Pauline Marois is proposing new language laws and a her version of secularism. Both of which will make Quebec much worse off. The new Language laws or as Marois would like to put it “a new Bill 101” would harm the most vulnerable people in Quebec society. These People are the anglophone population.

Amir Khadir was the first Quebec Solidaire member of the national assembly, and now the Quebec Solidaire seems poised to try and gain another seat right next to Amir Khadir’s. In the riding of Gouin the Co-President of the Quebec Solidaire Francois David is campaigning to try and get her party a second seat in the National Assembly.
In the last election Francois David got 7987 votes while the PQ candidate Nicholas Girard (who is also running in 2012) got 10276 votes. In total that about 2,300 votes difference, which may be a lot for the Quebec Solidaire to get. Especially with the PQ riding higher in the polls then they did in 2008, but the Quebec Solidare seems to be doing a very local campaign. In which they will be concentrating a lot more of there time on Gouin and Mercier (Amir Khadir’s riding).
In 2008 Amir Khadir unseated a PQ MNA to get elected, if Francois David get’s elected September 4th she will also unseat a PQ member of national assembly. What does this mean to the PQ chances of forming government. In an election so close the Quebec Solidaires two seat could make it or break it for the PQ. Francois David had this to say:
« Si à la fin de la campagne, il manque un seul comté pour que le PQ
forme un gouvernement majoritaire, et bien je suis ouverte à dialoguer
avec lui », a-t-elle lancé.
Which in English means that she would be open to having dialogue with the PQ after the election if they are missing one MNA to form a Majority government. And one would believe it very likely that the Quebec Solidaire would support the PQ form a government.
So now one can safely assume when making riding projections that if their is a minority government one can safely assume that the QS will be supporting the PQ.
