I think you mean "ultimate"..."penultimate" is second last.
Yeah, sorry. I use my phone for this and between fat fingers (worker hands) and autocorrect, I come across as drunk sometimes.

Things I learned today:
- Brazen 2 is about to wrap up. The TPS source is growing skeptical that Ford will be charged since he hasn't been yet but agrees that police didn't bust him when they had the opportunity because they're on to something bigger. The source allows for the possibility that they're waiting on a key piece of evidence. If that doesn't pan out, the source agrees that the optics are going to be terrible and the operation will have been a failure given the minor charges laid via a vis the resources expended and the inevitable public opinion hit.
- Charges against Ford rely heavily on Lisi's case going to trial. The source believes that Lisi will take a plea bargain or plead guilty outright to avoid a trial. The source doesn't have insight into Lisi's council but like me understands that he can't afford the legal team defending him and so isn't the one calling the shots on his own defence.
Seriously? I'm no fan of Conrad Black but that was the best commentary on the matter I've read.
If this ends, Brazen II wraps and Ford doesn't go down, the right will have a field day. Ford will be given a martyr narrative that he'll try to ride to re-election (and may just succeed). This is a huge disaster, but I'm inclined to agree it is looking more and more like it will be the case.
Deeply depressing news...

OK, I went and read it. You owe me 5mins & about 5000 brain cells. A convicted fraudster thinks admitted criminal behaviour shouldn't keep someone from being Mayor. Funny that.
Also, the sliming of the Star was positively Blackian in its bloviating & completely Off-topic ranting. You need to read more widely, methinks.
I've already accepted that Ford is probably going to be re-elected.
Have you been watching the online comment forums? ...
Surely you don't take online comment forums to be in any way representative of the general population. Most folks would not take the time to leave comments on news sites. Comment trolls are either retiree shut-ins with too much time on their hands, or paid shills of the Queen's Quay Karen variety. Keep some perspective.
