It's the 14th, and I'm itching for an October surprise. Hope a nice big bombshell arrives soon, ideally involving the words "mid-level hash dealer."

Now there's a John Tory sign in front of the house at 15 Windsor, where #RobFord crack video was filmed #TOpoli

^^^ This.

Not sure your intended meaning YPQ but I forgot about this until you just said it. Every time RoFo was saying "my heart bleeds" for this or that, it irked me so very much. Growing up, that was a sarcastic saying, meaning the opposite and that you did not care for whatever you were making that comment at. I know that the meaning could go either way but it was just so irritating to hear over and over, and about serious issues and events. Did anyone else hear it the way I did?

It was discussed here at the time the young girl was killed in a traffic accident. It had been grating on my nerves as he was always using it when he was attempting to express sympathy. Drove me nuts too. I've never known anyone to use it except as sarcasm, so I guess it's another example of Ford misunderstanding expressions. Another was "actions speaks louder than words". What an idiot.

Oh noes! What will Iola do?

Would it be in poor taste if I hoped Rob at least lasts long enough to testify at Lisi's trial?

Not at all. I'm looking forward to it, as well. I wonder if US news outlets will publish stories from the prelim. Will Rob Ford be interesting enough for them to follow through on the coverage?

First there was a Ford sign, now Tory. Perhaps one side effect of crack use is the inability to decide who to vote for in an election.

Or they are trying to get the incoming admin to pay for their hydro bill. Good luck to them on that score.

Hey, Doug Holyday is on my TV. Says Doug Ford would be a good mayor #TOPoli

Ann Hui ‏@annhui 13s13 seconds ago
Doug Holyday on CP24 says it's a "difficult decision" for him voting, bc he respects both Tory, Ford. Doesn't know yet who he'll support.

Doug Holyday says he isn't making an ENDORSEMENT of Doug Ford. Doesn't know who he's going to vote for #TOPoli

Ann Hui ‏@annhui 2m2 minutes ago
(That's pretty major, consider Holyday was deputy mayor under Mayor Rob Ford + has long been a Ford ally)

He also repeats the lie that Toronto was about to go bankrupt before Rob was elected...

Hope a nice big bombshell arrives soon, ideally involving the words "mid-level hash dealer."

"A Globe and Mail investigation last year detailed how the future city councillor and aspiring mayor trafficked in large amounts of hashish during the 1980s. He repeatedly denied the allegations and vowed to serve the paper with a notice of libel, but never did."
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/can-doug-ford-win-torontos-mayoral-race/article20591133/

And we wonder why the only endorsement he can get is from three years before that story was published.

I don't think the U.S. news will bother with him, it's kinda hard to make jokes involving a dying man. And that's all he ever was to them, an easy joke.

"My brother's gonna be the best mayor the city's ever had," Mayor Ford says. He sounds and looks really rough.

Daniel Dale ‏@ddale8 28s29 seconds ago
Rob Ford is doing a scrum after casting his vote. Seems quite unwell, straining to speak.

The man is killing himself just to get attention...

 

[pattycakes]

Holy crap. Did he actually say this? I thought he was the smart one.

“This is a political election and some people want to make it about political endorsements,†he said."

[AlvinofDiaspar]

A "political election", instead of an apolitical kind where the winner gets a spatrip to Greenstone?

I hope that Ward 2 voters take note of this, plus the fact that he looked and sounded terrible.
