For this message to resonate, and move voters, it obviously helps enormously if Harper is ahead in the polls, in the final days. The more ahead, the better. Especially in Ontario. <br />In my mind, that's the best indirect route to winning Quebec votes. <br /><br />The "Coalition" messaging in Quebec is tricky. Harper has toned down his rhetoric since last December, no longer referring to a "socialist/seperatist" coalition. I also expect him to say: "A vote for the BLOC is a vote for the Liberals."
