No, its not yet another NDP or Green candidate-gone-wild. Its the supposedly staid Conservative Party who today is dealing with the blogospheric rantings (via Jerad Gallinger) of Ryan Warawa, the unlikely CPC candidate for Vancouver-East challenging the indefatigable and can't-be-defeated Libby Davies.
