I know it won't happen, but I would love it if that insider blew the whistle. Just wishful thinking I guess.

Statement from Andray Domise, posted on his website (emphasis mine):
Domise has been endorsed by John Tory; I think I read elsewhere (twitter, perhaps?) that Domise is aligned with Tory's campaign. Kouvalis has been expecting the old switcheroo all along. A lot of Domise's rhetoric has been directed at both Rob and Doug, even though neither of them was his opponent and even before Mikey was floated as a candidate.
I know this may be wishful thinking on my part, but if Kouvalis has been preparing Andray for this all along it could get very interesting in ward 2. I love the line that I highlighted in his statement. I think it's the shot over the bow.

My bad. Just caught up on the background to this. No go.
Please TorStar and any other mainstream media, please find a Scarborough resident for your "man on the street interview segment" who does not fit the media narrative of "Scarborough Loves Da Fords", because I guarantee there is more than a few of us out there. Even with the few examples in that article, it's like the Star is going out of it's way to make sure the takeaway message is Ford gets much love from Scarborough. You know what, maybe I actually am in the minority in a sea of Ford loving Scarberians, but Eff. Da. Fords. Robber and Druggie -are- the tumors of this city.
Metroman is interesting:

"Christie Blatchford: Ford family’s multi-pronged takeover bid has Toronto feeling like North Korea
Where am I? Is this North Korea? Can we expect Dennis Rodman soon to grace Toronto with a visit?"

But that's my point - if they're doing this simply because they're afraid that Rob wouldn't win the mayoral race, but they want him to still have a place on council to keep his name out there and active in city politics, I think he could have done that fairly easily by dropping out of the mayor's race and giving a minor reason that being mayor at this time is too much, but he could still be an effective councillor (addiction recovery, less stress as a councillor, or even that he has a less serious health issue) without requiring all this hoopla, and he would have easily won ward 2, looking forward to a comeback for mayor in 2018.
I feel very bad for Domise. What a shame. He would have been brilliant.
Because if he was ahead in the polls, he wold have stayed and so would Mikey. Mikey would then vote against everyone just like Doug does now. Then in a few years it would be Mikey's turn to be mayor and the dynasty would remain.
Do you think he is telling the truth?
Do not count Andray Domise out! He will muster more support out of this for certain. I already donated to him and I don't even live in ward 2. If he were to debate Rubbie, it would be a blood bath. I would pay money to watch.
Everyone needs to do whatever they can--donate, volunteer- especially on elxn day to call his supporters and make certain they have voted.
We cannot give in to the FoFam!
Read the article, they weren't just ford fans. I wasn't going to read it because I thought it was all about how Scarborough loves the fords but it wasn't .
Do you think he is telling the truth?
If the polls were in Rob's favour he would run as mayor. Doug didn't want to be a councillor again so he would have gone to Chicago, Rob would have stayed in the mayoralty race and Mikey in Ward 2. Contingency plan was what is happening today.
I hope the media is looking into Metro Man's comments.
