Larry Zolf's calling for that too, now.

"If [NDP leader Jack] Layton devoted his considerable skills at debating in attacking the Tories rather than the Liberals he might get the Liberal minority he dreams of. Instead, a Tory minority government is in the cards and Layton is doing nothing about it."

Of course, he's also got this to say about Harper:

Harper in minority might be good for us in the end: he'd pull the Libs even further right, which might help the next government be more progressive.
