MISSION ACCOMPLISHED...

...if the CONs latest attack ad assault was trying to 'firm up' those negative numbers -- for Stephen Harper.
The lying so-called leader of the CONs scores some pretty blue numbers, according to Angus Reid's reading of a poll on the attack ads, current public attitudes and the leaders.
