Place your bets... when will Parliament dissolve?

I've heard there will be an election called in the Spring time. My dad was saying it will probably be sooner - it the next month or so. Martin's ratings are very high right now, so he will probably want to call an election sooner or later... I don't think he wants to be another Kim Campbell, Joe Clark or John Turner.

I have the feeling that Martin may try to push it in late spring our early summer so to distance it from the Conservative leadership race.

However, I don't know who I'll vote for. They all look like weasels.
Paul Martin <- weasel
Stephan Harper <- weasel
Belinda Stronach <- weasel
Tony Clement <- weasel
Gilles Duceppe <- weasel

Jack Layton doesn't look like a weasel, but it doesn't mean I want to vote NDP.

We need to get some un-weasel looking people back into politics

(But Ernie Eves is easily the king of the weasels).

I think Jack Layton is a weasel...I think the NDP is all washed up.

Anyway, I've decided to vote Green from now on. I am so sick of all the parties.

I used to vote Conservative but after the merger, they just lost my vote.

I see late spring/early summer for an election call.

I'm predicting a May/June election as well. Definitely not voting for NDP though. Jack Layton looks ummmmmmm creepy.
