The Star, via nottawa.
The Conservative victory in 2006 was a function of a strong New Democratic performance.
Someone could reasonably conclude that an intervention that pushes votes to the New Democrats in this province, or which splits the non-Conservative vote would actually help the federal Conservatives secure the seats they have and maybe pick up a few more.
maybe that's what ABC is all about anyway. A political phoney war? maybe.
But definitely the kind of intervention that might help Stephen Harper rather than hurt the federal Conservatives.
