12 hours late.... my final prediction of the election

For better or worse, here it is:

• Conservatives  152
• NDP 71
• Liberals 52
• Bloc 31
• Ind 2 

A second independent seems likely given James Ford in Edmonton Sherword Park has an outside chance, and in Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke Hec Clouthier, former red neck Liberal MP, is coming on strong.

I am not going to post a province by province list as this is not a riding by riding prediction, other than a few specific ones, but a nationwide outcome.   The more ridings in the mix, the more the close races balance each other out.
