Just because he finished second in the last two nomination races does not make him an automatic kick-in for the candidacy. I would imagine that he will lose by much larger margin this time. This is not really a tory target riding anyway.

If you are looking for embarassing candidates in this riding, feel free to look at the liberals.

Is FHK an expert? One hardly thinks so.

Another "fourth period" coach trying his best to
be Ron McLean.

If this is the kind of success old Sammy has during his days as a realtor, how is he going to be able to manage running his own political office?

FHK's political ability was revealed in the Coquitlam byelection.

8th of 9 candidates with 28 votes. Not even 1% of the vote.

Not exactly the best way to start a campaign.

Wouldn't get too hyped up about Rakhara. This was resolved to the Real Estate Board's satisfaction.

Seen worse from politicians and would be politicians and also from supporters.

As for FHK. 28 votes? I've seen more people at
an NDP meeting in a strong Liberal riding.

What praytell is wrong with Gerry Lenoski?

If Gerry Lenoski leads the way in getting the federal Liberals to pay back the millions of taxpayer dollars stolen during Adscam with a cheque from the party to the Finance Minister, heck even a few Conservatives and NDPers would vote for him.

But that's not going to happen.

I didn't write the quote. FHK (aka: Warren) did.

Haha, you guys can spin this as many ways as you want, but I just cant wait to see who will be running against Peter Julian from the liberals in this riding.

A few of us are waiting for Warren (FHK) to end up running again with enough votes to get his deposit back.

From our view it looks like that political hack
Lenoski will be the candidate.

Can't wait soon enough to see who is going to seek the nomination oops I mean get appointed
as candidate in Burnaby Douglas.

I would say that Warren Kung has not motivated his base enough to get Ralph Banni elected. He was the only minority candiate in the race but decided to THROW HIS SUPPORT BEHIND RALPH BANNI AFTER THE FIRST DEBATE so Ralph can defeat the two front-runners in the race backed by labor backed and James Moore respectively. The result? Ralph Banni received 16% of the votes ahead of the prominent two-time mayoral candiate Harry Warren.

I would say that campaign was a success in boosting Ralph Banni's position from 17th in 2002 and 16th in 2005 to now 3rd in 2007 and receving more votes in percentage than any other election.

As for embarassing federal candidates, hmm, where do I start? I probably wont though given that most people are tired of hearing about cross-burning or secret taping. And given that this is arguably the strongest NDP riding second only to Vancouver East, I guess whoever wins nomination race may not be that relevant anyway.
