Reply #5: Agree, there is simply no benefit to the NDP to cooperate

[Spazito]

in forcing Canadians to the polls in February when there will be an election come March or April anyway. Up until this decision, I gave Layton full credit for the decisions he has made in working with the Liberals and forcing them to lean more left. It brought up the NDP party's credibility with Canadians, not enough to elect them as the governing party as yet but definitely closer.

With this decision, he will now be seen as aligning his party with the faux Cons and the Bloc instead and for what benefit? It makes no sense politically, imo.
