2. Hopefully Layton and Martin will gang up on George W Harper
Now that the tories are ahead in the polls, it's no time for fighting on the left.

8. Thanks for the heads-up.
Managed to catch a bit before supper.

Any surprises, other than how pretty Jack looks in all that makeup?

10. Paul had the line of the night.
From memory: "After taxes, Harper's 'child care plan' amounts to a dollar a day. If back in the time of Tommy Douglas and Lester Pearson had they proposed a dollar a day and said 'this is Medicare' would we have the great system we have today?"

Overall though, Layton had the strongest performance.

13. You probably could have watched it a www.cpac.ca
There's another one tomorrow night en français, but you can set the CPAC website to do English voice-overs. (Granted that's not as fun.)

12. Harper is a joke, an absolute joke
..what have the media and the conservatives got cooked up
together, because the media here is HANDING it to the conservatives.

Martin won this debate hands down, he's the best leader out of the group
for Canada. I like Layton too, but in terms of running an entire country
coast to coast, Martin is the only one.
