On inconsistent positions

The comment seems to have largely escaped scrutiny so far, presumably due in part to an impression that Harper and the Cons are going out of their way to avoid saying anything meaningful for the balance of the campaign. But surely I can't be the only one to find it ironic that the same man who's trying to saddle Canada with a U.S.-style elected Senate (with all the resulting gridlock) is now trying to strongarm his way to a majority by decrying the difficulty of getting things done in the U.S. Congress.
