I haven't heard anything about cops investigating Doug.

Maybe that has been the whole point. Maybe its the FBI doing that side of the equation.... maybe that is why he needs a job in Canada suddenly? Ask somebody who knows.

This is probably evil, but I would love to hear Leeanne's reaction to all this.

Wonder how Rob is coping with going cold turkey, for real this time......

What makes you think he's going cold turkey? You think Renata wouldn't dip into the household vodka to help see him through the night?

No way its raw data - I say its weighted. Really? They can turn a poll around in 3 hours? They have a hard enough time doing it in a weekend.

I'm not following, marc. Weighted data takes longer to produce. They apply various calculations to factor for various issues, such as the likelihood repsondents will vote. Raw data is just the numbers as they come with no second-level treatment.

Yikes, Doug would get 34% support.

Daniel Dale @ddale8
POLL: John Tory 41%, Doug Ford 34%, Olivia Chow 19%. Treat with caution: events were still unfolding. on.thestar.com/1wj70qs

6% Undecided? WOW - AGAIN I CALL BULLSHIT!!!!! FUCKING BULLSHIT! I HATE THESE POLL GUYS!

They are using data from polls where "hypothetical" were asked and applied the shift before this crazy crap happened. See last post - 6% undecided - no way.

Prim Minister Harper was in town today and still didn't swing by to say hello to either one of these clowns - that should tell you enough.

Mike Tyson would be a tough act to follow.

Lisi has a court date on Monday.

Jonathan Goldsbie ‏@goldsbie
According to @SamPazzano, who brought it to my attention, it's a judicial pre-trial that'll be closed to the public.

Ah. Thanks for clarifying. FYI. I tweeted Daniel Dale. He said the results are weighted.

I wonder if Chow thinks its so important to keep the Fords out of the mayors office that she'll support Tory.

 

[Kilroy]

Was it me or was it weird that all those people walked out in front of the cameras in Mama Ford's place in Red Carpet wear?

It was Doug's campaign launch.

Everybody in their Sunday Best!






Oh yeah.. I almost forgot. Rob's sick.

Wait, what? Can you dumb that down a shade?

I've been out most of the evening, so catching up on so many posts is impossible, but I caught a bit of Doug's presser surrounded by his family. Am I the only one that is reminded of an American reality show? All that bleach blonde in the background, posing and grinning. It's Doug Dynasty without the camo. Just.....disturbing...

Wow. Glad the media is going there. This could be interesting.
