Expert manipulations

Call it anti-reality animus or just the result of staff cuts. But take a look at who's actually behind CTV's report which breathlessly claims that "experts" don't think a coalition government can work.

In fact, one of the two sources cited says that the coalition could well work based on the extreme circumstances:
"My gut reaction would be similar to his (Cooper's). However, sometimes, the political parties in Ottawa get themselves into a situation where they can actually create a momentum that is hard to push back," he said.

"It's possible that they (MPs) are all saying we'll defeat the government. But they don't want to force an election and so they will force themselves to make a coalition work."
And the other "expert"? That would be one of Stephen Harper's longtime confidants who, at last notice, was being evasive (in his own words!) over his funnelling of charitable donations into illegal third-party advertising supporting the Conservatives.

Suffice it to say that if CTV can't find anybody less partisan than Barry Cooper to question whether a coalition can work, then Harper truly has created the conditions for his own demise. And it couldn't happen to a more deserving individual.
