The websites that average the plethora of daily polls have been indicating an NDP opposition since Tuesday or Wednesday. The general consensus is

1. The Blockheads will lose about half their seats.
2. Libs and NDP will change places.
3. Conservatives will stay about the same (may even go up a little, depending on how the vote splits go in the close races)

IMHO, if Harper doesn't get his majority, we will see three new leaders within the next 18 months. Maybe even 4, depending on Jack's health. If the scenario plays out as described above, I think the Libs will prop up the Conservatives (no official agreement of course) by voting with the Conservatives or by having a few members coming down with strange illnesses on the days of confidence votes. With a completely demoralized (and broke) Liberal party, it won't be very hard to throw the Libs a few bones to get their support (I would even wager a toonie that Harper could negotiate that deal).

Canadian Election Watch is a good site with lots of links.
