Layton and Harper dance but who leads?

OTTAWA_ N-D-P Leader Jack Layton is giving signals that he could prevent an election until at least the spring.

Layton says he wants to see more help for the unemployed from the minority Conservative government before deciding whether to help Prime Minister Stephen Harper maintain power.

In a statement after question period in Ottawa today, Layton said he'd prefer that there not be a fall election.

And Layton told reporters he expects the recession to affect Canadians until the spring.
