I think it's a fairly good night for the NDP but sometimes I think NDP partisans do a great disservice with their fantasies that it was neck-in-neck in CCMV (see here and also on EPP) by making such absurd predictions (look how many NDP calls there were on EPP).
My feeling is no NDP strategist - as out to lunch as they often are - actually thought they had a chance in hell of winning of CCMV or Hochelaga.
