georgia10 at Kos points out that even in the U.S., the anti-war vote may be strong enough to push congressional seats into Democratic hands if it gets organized. While this vote may be based in large part on the obvious mishandling of Iraq which doesn't exist as an issue to the same extent in Canada, I have to wonder whether there's an equal amount of potential for a shift based on Canada's anti-war vote...particularly when a few points squeezed away from the Libs based on their unquestioning support for indefinite military action in Afghanistan could push the NDP ahead as the leading party on the left.
