Paul Martin did very well. But he’ll lose the election.
Harper did not do well. There is nothing stopping Paul Martin from the TV spot and Harper was wrong to imply here was any type of convention relating to the Prime Minister presenting on the TV. Harper wrongly said that Martin asked to be the one to fix the scandal. Martin said the opposite. He said he will call the election for 30 days after the final report. In the election in June or January, we may all learn what duds the Grits are but we will also get another bucketful of twisty Harper. And then likely a minority Tory government.
