Southwestern Ontario's blue tide rising (en francais)

Although I disagree with Mr. Butler on the Tory surge being the only reason for Rick's campaign doing so well, I'm not going to argue with the assessment. The fact that Rick has knocked on over 18,000 doors and the the team has completed over 45,000 phone calls since May have played a large factor. Fourteen months of work have produced an in-depth campaign plan, a committed (or soon to be!) team and the hardest working candidate I've ever seen.

Southwestern Ontario's blue tide rising
Hard times in area farming and auto industries mean trouble for the Liberals, writes Don Butler.

One measure of the Tory surge is that even in urban Windsor-Tecumseh, a former Liberal stronghold where Tories have never done well, the race is now widely seen as being between New Democrat incumbent Joe Comartin and Conservative Rick Fuschi.

Sorry Bruck. Wrong choice, wrong party, wrong time.
