The NDP are the largest progressive party in Ontario, not even considering the LPO's "recent" (ie pre-Ford) fall from grace. If you want to stop splitting the progressive vote, it makes more sense for the Libs to join the PCs. Don't move the NDP to the right, split the conservative vote!!

Progressives need not aim at each other. Progressives need not aim at Ford. The largest voting segment in Ontario is the NON-VOTER. THOSE are the people who need to be targetted. Even if the NDP and Liberals were in lockstep with each other, it STILL would not be enough to form a government. The problem isn't scavenging from other progressives, the problem is voter disenfranchisement.
