22 votes?

Sounds like he's the perfect replacement... for Stephane Dion.

-- VANCOUVER, B.C. -- One of the federal Liberals' high-profile western MPs won a squeaker recount Friday and said he's now pondering a run at the party's race to replace leader Stephane Dion.

Former NDP premier Ujjal Dosanjh, who first won Vancouver South for the Liberals in 2004 and was re-elected handsomely two years later, retained his seat by only 22 votes in a judicial recount of the Oct. 14 general election results.

Go, Ujjal, go.
