The riding is Svend Robinson's. There's not even a guarantee that the
Liberals will take it. According to the PMO, the one approved nominee is
well known to the party and so was approved quickly, while the others are
not well known in the party and so are undergoing background checks.

I think them playing the race card is rediculous. Martin appointed an East
Indian guy in a neighboring riding. It comes off to me as whining. I wonder
what they have to hide, that they need to complain about the tough new
background checks that Martin has made a requirement for nomination.

It's all about the whiners of the Liberal party who are now on the outside
looking in, and who want to do anything they can to make Paul Martin look
bad.
