Today, Premier Dalton McGuinty went to a Pickering restaurant, a Toronto radio station, and the campaign office of his minister of education (who happens to be running against John Tory).
John Tory, meanwhile, hit Scarborough, Pickering, Ajax, Oshawa, Markham, Thornhill, Willowdale, Etobicoke, Mississauga, and Oakville.
Guess which of those two men is desperate.
McGuinty has been trying to lie low. It looks like he might get his second majority, and it's a lot harder to screw that up when you're out of sight of voters and reporters.
Besides, Tory is doing a fine job of getting McGuinty elected on his own.
Tory's stop in Mississauga was in the Mississauga South riding. It is his third big event at incumbent Tim Peterson's headquarters in the past four weeks. Mississauga South is expected to be the only Mississauga riding in play. Peterson won it as a Liberal in 2003 with just 234 votes. Now he's trying to win it as a Tory against a solid candidate in Liberal Charles Sousa.
The most important thing now, with 23 hours and 15 minutes until polls close, is to get the vote out.
Liberal foot soldiers are going to be giddy with the prospect of another majority, something that appeared to be out of reach back in the summer. They don't need any pumping up from their leader.
The PC foot soldiers, on the other hand, feel beaten before the polls even open. That's why Tory spent today doing his big cross-GTA trip, to inspire his troops, to get them out so they can get the vote out. It is his last chance to save his name - which he built up through many years of business success and public service - from going down in provincial history as the man who was slaughtered by Pinocchio.
