Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

SPLAT!

The latest EKOS polls can pretty much be summed up like this. It has the press a-flutter, the Tories jumping for joy, and the Liberals...well actually we don't know what the Liberals are doing cause we can't find any.

Why? Because EKOS found that from the week of June 29-July 6, the Liberal Party of Canada polled the support of a whopping...23.9% of the populace. That's a new low. I think. It's really hard to keep track because whenever an EKOS poll comes out the Liberals seem to hit a new low.

So what is Michael Ignatieff doing to fix this? He is going to go on a bus tour across Canada, visiting battleground areas such as...Calgary. All jesting aside, he will be seeing people who: a) will vote for him no matter what, or b) who will not vote for him no matter what. At this rate, perhaps Ignatieff will become a minority Prime Minister in the year...2136?

And so, a parting question: all this really makes me wonder, how low can the Liberal Party go? Below 22? 20? The NDP? In the 2008 general election, the Liberals polled 26.2% of the vote and everybody thought that was their basement level of support. I guess not. The saviour everybody thought Ignatieff was, is no more.
