We hear that Swansea West Assembly hopeful Rob Speht has sent out another batch of unsolicited e-mails to various people – many of whom have never heard of the guy - to ask for their help in his dysfunctional campaign.
A similar identity challenge seems to be afflicting the part-time eastside Swansea councillor however. For whilst he reportedly writes that Lib Dems are fielding “a very strong team this time round”, and refers to Gower candidate Peter May and regional nominee Peter Black by name, there is unfortunately no mention at all of Swansea East contender Sam Samuel.
Speht shows himself equally muddled about local political history in his missive by insisting that the tories “always come third” in Swansea West despite the fact that they held second spot in 2001, 1997 & 1992 general elections.

... before they slumped to 4th in 2003.
I see, we're talking about the 2003 Assembly election. Err .. isn't that when Lib Dems came third (to Labour and Plaid)?
