If all the big elections in the past few years - from Obama to Rob Ford, are telling us anything, it's that people favour ideas and principles over "practical concerns" and powerbrokers. Left or right, and even when it seems almost scary, people want someone who believes in something. And for some reason, there's a widespread sense that the Liberals don't care about much beyond holding power.

They had their chance at a coalition. All they had to say was that they weren't going to back down over it. But they didn't, and couldn't even clearly state what they were going to do this time. They backed up most of the Conservative policies with votes, but not voices, and alienated both sides.
