Christmas Quiet Period

As we get into the Christmas period, all parties vow to spend it with their families and stay off the campaign trail. Not sure how well they will stick to this, but let's watch.

I liked Martin's approach to this announcement: "My wife says I'll be spending my time at home" or some such comment. Nice slightly mysogynistic, old 'ball and chain' comment. Way to win the votes of younger folk.

Harper just grins his creepy grin and talks about home and family because he figures that's what his religious right base is looking for.

Layton and his wife are both running, so I suspect they will both be stapling signs to posts between gift wrapping.

I'll be interested to see how the start of January plays out.
