That winning smile on the left comes from Ken Dimson after 30-year-old insurance salesman beat out Wanda Grendys, right, for Liberal nomination in Scarborough-Ellesmere riding this week. I got word the executive was looking for someone to run, said Dimson. I knew there was going to be some time in my life when I was going to run so thought it might as well be now. Victory was an anti-climax.
