Harper has decided to completely blow off the media for the final two
days of the campaign. On Friday reporters were actually physically
assaulted by campaign 'volunteers' when trying to interview Toronto-area
Tory candidates.
Me thinks the feline was about to escape from the sack and he must have
felt compelled to go into extreme damage-control mode in order to
contain the critter until Monday. We can only hope this strategy will
backfire. In any event the Internet newsgroups are humming over this
latest ploy.
