Dion’s negative comments jumped 10% (from 12% to 22%) while his positive comments slipped 6% (from 25% to 19%).
The other two candidates saw fewer differences from last week. The blogosphere let up on Ignatieff with negative comments decreasing from 35% to 28% this week, dropping 7% while his positives increased 3% (from 7% to 11%). Kennedy saw only minor changes with his negative comments increasing by 3%. The spike in negative comments for both Rae and Dion can in part be contributed to negative reception at the Montreal hosted French-language debate which took place on Saturday, October 21st.
