The media has had a fun time with Ralph Klein’s prediction of a Liberal minority government. The general consensus is that this is bad news for Harper and that it may be part of the long simmering feud between the two men.
I’m not so sure. The more distance the CPC can get between Harper and Klein, the better off they are. So, if anything, this might actually be a good thing for Stephen Harper.
Of course, I did come across another one of Ralph’s old predictions here:
Premier Ralph Klein predicts Edmonton will roundly stomp Montreal 32-19.
That was in reference to the 2003 Grey Cup. The final score of that game?
Edmonton 34
Montreal 22
Not bad Ralph. Let’s see how close you are to the mark this time…
