Yes. And the opposition are all on record, and were going to bring him down, for not offering stimulus. Now he'll be in deficit and simply blame the opposition for forcing him to offer up stimulus. You gotta go inside the head there Leny.
He can blame the opposition and in turn be blamed for squandering those surpluses when times were still good which made the deficits even bigger.
In the same way that the Conservatives can make Ignatieff's openness to the raising the GST in three or four years a stunning revalation (or a bombshell in the words of one particular conservative pundit) of his tax and spend ways, the Liberals can run by comparing Harper's economic record to the Liberals' circa 1993 - 2006.
That's the headline at the Globe and Mail. It was speculated after the election that Harper wanted to share the burden of the recession with the opposition. So far a job well done.

You mean we're actually going to campaign on our good fiscal record? About 5 years too late no?
Well it is a crazy idea. But it is probably a good fall back option if campaigning on who has written more books fails to catch on with the public.
Opposition takes credit for planned deficit spending
