It's very important we remind these politicians that their assertions are all invalid.  Yes, the majority didn't vote for the Liberals.  We get that all the time in elections featuring more than two parties.  It also means that the majority didn't vote for the NDP.  It most definitely means that the majority didn't vote for a coalition government, where the platform of such a government was not articulated for examination.

There's a fallacy at play here.  That individuals somehow voted 'collectively' to send some kind of message.  Popularity of the Liberal party is down.  That is obvious.  It's not obvious that it was down sufficiently that a new government 'must' be formed. 

I'd speculate that voter fatigue for the Liberals is high (due to their various indiscretions).  However, neither the NDP or Greens have provided a compelling alternative to attract the large number if disaffected voters.  I conclude that this is a damning indictment of all parties! Politicians" you all suck!
