Interesting. Pantalone will be in his 60s soon ... I can't help feel that he is yesterday's man ... it's 30 years since he was first elected to council - over half his lifetime.
Giambrone on the other hand is only 32 ... barely older than when Pantalone first entered council in 1980. I can't help feeling he is tomorrow's man.
But who is todays man?
If one of the two of them drops out, can they then withdraw their candidacy, and run for their local seat? What's the deadline for declaring?
Edit ... if I read http://www.toronto.ca/elections/candidates/key-dates.htm correctly either of them can withdraw their nomination until September 10, and also file to run as councillor. Hmm, not much stopping David Miller changing his mind before then as well.
Wow, already 23 candidates for Mayor. What attracts these fringe candidates? What do they get out of it?
