Be mindful though that the SP has a massive campaign machine, and Bos might move more to center to catch CDA voters tired of Balkenende's policies (unthinkable under previous CDA PM's and heavily criticized by local CDA branches (in the city of Breda CDA councilman refuse to meet with Balkenende to protest against his policies).

And, as you can read here http://www.peil.nl/?1782 , Labour has to choose. As CDA loathes Labour and vice versa, they will probably go for a coalition with the VVD, which makes a vote for Labour a vote for a left wing coalition, whether they like it or not (define or be defined). I'm not sure such grandstanding would help the CDA though.

PS the link is in Dutch

And don't forget the Christian Union and D66 might join a left-wing coalition. Not very realistic, but not out of the question either.
