Why would Ford Run on a detailed policy plan? All he has to say is I am gonna bring jobs and lower taxes and stop the liberal corruption.
I know, I get it. People don't care to critically examine that which they are being fed. It's too "hard". Gimmicky jingles and a bit of marketing is all it takes to get people to eat up whatever crap you're serving these days.
Ford is learning. Look at the last two elections. What killed the Tories? Policies they proposed, which promptly took the spotlight off the Liberals.
Tory, for example, thought he was doing something good extending school vouchers to religious schools. People forget that Canada has just been called ito by the UN for being discriminatory with religious school funding. Best intention cost him the race.
Hudak, propose 100 000 job cuts. Most of it through attrition and hiring freeze. Stiff proposal. But not actually that far from the net effect of the Drummond Report. Well, look at how the Liberals painted him.
The best thing Ford can do is not release policy till the night before the first debate. Drop breadcrumbs along the way. That's what I'd do if I was in his shoes.
