Comment by PhantomObserver:

How does Dion come out of this looking good?

Simple. By comparing this result with the last round of by-elections, back in September, where there were *no* Liberal victories whatsoever. Once this comparison is made, Dion does come out looking a lot better, though not by much.

The Liberals could have run Dion's dog in the Willowdale riding and won. The same probably holds for Toronto Centre. In the meantime, the Liberals only won Vancouver Quadra by 151 votes.

The really interesting news is that the Green Party tied the NDP in three of the ridings (I haven't seen the Sask. results).

Lets not forget that the fat cat Libs owned all 4 seats.They were all Liberal seats won by the Liberals in the last election.So lets see,The Conservatives beat the hell out of the Libs in Sask.in a riding that the oh so smart-ass Dion planted his own personal pick.And in a riding in B.C.where they won by 20% over the Conservatives last election,they barely squeek out a win by less than 1% .They win 2 ridings in Ontario where a pile of **** could run and win and apparently did in one riding.They elect a man who was the worst premier Ontario ever had.LOL LOL LOL.Its so friggin funny i cant stop laughing.And to top it off we get to hear a speech from Dion on how it was the Liberals finest hour.And all the MSM liberal scumbags headline Liberal Victories,,Liberals win,,We all love the Liberals,,Maybe this will be all the Liberals needed to get them to call an election..Well here is the Headline you scumbag MSM Liberals lose 1 of their seats and nearly lose a second one to the Conservatives.A sad day for the Liberals,not a happy day.They won nothing,they retained 3 of their 4 seats.The Conservatives didnt lose a thing,they are up 1 seat this morning and guess what you MSM scumbags ,the Libs didnt win anything,as a matter of fact if you check out the number of seats now you will find that the LIbs have one less seat than yesterday.So c,mon you MSM scumbags,tell us again,what did the Libs win last night.
