In their editorial today - the Kamloops Daily News editorial board declares the BC Conservative "Dead on Arrival" insofar as the 2013 Provincial Election goes...
From the editorial:
It has been working to establish constituency associations for every riding, including the two in Kamloops. But there is yet to be a whiff of a local nomination race, featuring credible local candidates with a history of community service.
The damage is done. If the party is to succeed next May, it needs to gain interest from the public for something other than its internal woes.
Also - note that the BC Conservatives have yet to establish working Riding Associations' in Cariboo-North and Cariboo-Chilcotin and time is rapidly approaching the "point of no return" where it would be impossible to organize these to effectively campaign the two provincial ridings, here in the entire Cariboo-Chilcotin, in 2013
It is a certainty that the local BC Conservative Regional Director in Kamloops (and my uncle) Alan Forseth will respond to this editorial by slamming the editorial board position of the Kamloops Daily News as it relates to the BC Conservative Party as Forseth did earlier with regard to questions raised by former Kamloops Daily News editor Mel Rothenburger over the BC Conservative nomination process for the two Kamloops Provincial ridings

Hi Steve ....I am puzzled by you stating that I will, " ...respond to this editorial by slamming the editorial board position of the Kamloops Daily News as it relates to the BC Conservative Party as Forseth did earlier with regard to questions raised by former Kamloops Daily News editor Mel Rothenburger"
My response to that editorial was simply that as I had told him the day before our nomination process would be held later in the year, that there were indeed people who had indicated they would be seeking the nomination, and NO I would not tell him who they were in advance of them making there own announcements.
The decision by him, to slant and structure his editorial was his decision --- and as I stated in my response to him ... our nomination process would be proceeding on our timetable, and not his retirement plans
Not quite the slam you would also like to spin that as ????
