Ah, the old "Gen X 40" election logo. I came up with that over five years ago during the 2005/06 campaign. Remember that? Remember when people blogged about elections and even paid people to do it? That was nuts.
Well, break out the 8-track player and the wide leg jeans because we are going back for a nostalgic trip into the world of dead end social trends and gonna blog the swan song for either Iggy or Steve. Sure, it's all about Twitter now but that's a bit wobbly still - Steve seems to think it's just like email.
Today's story? Iggy pumping up a packed ballroom in an Ottawa hotel. We've had three successive elections with the Grits led by duds. It would be great if Iggy actually turns out to be a good campaigner.

I will be out of the country for this election, so I'm counting on GenX40 for ALL my top-notch up to the second election coverage analysis!

That was fab fun...Tweeting is to blogging as Abstract Expressionism is to the Renaissance.

And I note the election you referred to went on for 55 days.
The current election is, more or less, over and we only have 33 days to go.
Yes, they were giants back in the day.
As I recall, Harper took the last three days of that election campaign off.
