Thus far, neither the Liberals nor the NDP appear to be making any kind of effort to let voters know they exist. No signs, no literature, no door-to-door knocking. Nothing. You gotta at least try, guys...

I think the big kicker here in Calgary is the fact that the Liberal party is in serious financial trouble and literally can't afford to put up a lot of signs or wage a decent ground fight in such an area of the country with such little vote prospects. Likewise for the NDP, if they're going to userp the Liberals for official opposition they will have to win battleground ridings. None of which are in Calgary. I also think the NDP, to their credit don't want to waste election money supporting the campaigns of amateur-hour candidates half of which are Students or recent graduates looking to add 2008 Federal Election campaign to their resumes.
