What renders Solberg's stratospheric 3/4 mandate all the more astonishing is the presence of the city of Medicine Hat in his constituency, i.e. it's semi-urban, and far from pure-bred "Rural Alberta". (2/3, I can believe, but *3/4*?!?) Truly testament to the breadth of his popularity--even if, as potential Prime Ministerial material, he's Tony Clement's match for four-eyed-nerdy-geeky-dorkiness. |

I'm surprised that Medicine Hat's got the big 'question mark' beside it; it shouldn't. The Conservatives could nominate a bale of hay and pull seventy-plus percent of the vote. Instead, they're running Monte Solberg, who is one of the more talented Conservatives. Easy win, much like any other mostly rural Alberta seat... |

Is there any doubt on this one? The combined vote was 85% Conservative last time. Monte Solberg is a popular front bench MP, with rumoured leadership ambitions someday. With the Liberals leaving a bad taste in Albertans mouths, I'd even go so far as to suggest Solberg could win this one with 90%. |

Solberg has been touted as a possible Prime Minister one day, he will win easily. |

Conservative hold. Solberg is very strong, combined vote will bring this riding a over 85% result for the CPC. |

Combined conservative vote in 2000 was 85%. Easy hold for Monte Solberg. |

Solberg is a front becher in the new tory party, was in the old alliance, and even back to the Reform party. He will be on the front bench again as the member for Medicine Hat. |
