May I suggest that now that doug is no longer running for mayor, that conversation move to the PC leadership race thread here https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/2018-ontario-pc-leadership-race-what-can-brown-do-for-you.28266

Will this become a general thread for all things Ford related?
It could. And i’m still not ruling out a mayoral run!

Idiot, he should have waited to see if Mulroney and Elliot were in before saying he’s done with his mayoral ambitions. Can’t go back now.

If he was slapped more than I was growing up then I can see why he's angry.

Sure he can. When has a Ford followed the rules?

True, but he’s weakened any credibility he’d have with the base.
They don't care about credibility. Look at Trump's base; he can apparently lie daily without losing them. Ford Nation is like that.

I figure he will lose, then if a somewhat progressive person like Keesmat runs for mayor, he'll dive in and say he has to stop the tax and spend elite liberal and nobody else is capable of doing that.

I agree.

Elliot entering the race just made life easier for Ford by cutting into the Mulroney female vote slightly. Jim was a good friend of the Fords I believe.... Bit of teamwork maybe?

Can't go back now? Have you ever heard Dougie? Backtracking is just about all he does.

Elliott ain't in it because she thinks Mulroney's gonna win it; I'm not sure it's reasonable to assume any of those three have substantially better than a 33.33% chance of victory going in.
It happens frequently; they'll do polls and if someone isn't performing well, chances are they'll pull out and support another candidate. Hopefully if they've split the vote too much and it looks like Dougie has a chance, they'll think of the good of the party and combine forces so he doesn't win.
But once again, let's keep discussion about the PC leadership campaign in the proper thread.
