Cleary had referred to NDP supporters as a "small pocket of aging granolas and artsy-fartsies" and that they were "a mainstream party that wouldn't win an election if Jackie Layton was given a 100-seat head start."

Despite his late entrance into the campaign and his previous comments he still managed to place a strong second in the riding.
