Everyone: Andray Domise's thank-you letter to his supporters shows me what kind of individual
that he is - class in the face of defeat to RF - and I am probably not the only one who found by how
much that he was defeated troubling...LI MIKE

W2 Vote: RF 11,629
La Rocque: 2158
Domise: 1620

Aaannnd here comes the lame inevitable: Well, sofa so good then.

That's what I said to my wife about our daughter Couchie and our son Bark (Lamport Barcalounger Davenport).
I'm very proud of them both.

Oh gosh, I always called your son Otto, man. Sorry 'bout that...

How the hell does Joe Warmington eat and breathe with his lips planted so firmly on Rob Ford's ass?

I'm picturing it to be something akin to The Human Centipede.

Not sure if this has been posted. A sit down interview with Mikey, sounds like a nice kid. Just a kid, a fairly young kid. OMG.

Say, whatever happened to what's her name? You know, the "country pumpkin"?

That's OK. He likes Turkish food. Not so keen on ISIS though.
When he grows up he wants to be an Armchair Psychologist, just like his old man.

CBC showed that almost all, if not the entire of Scarborough, plus Etobicoke, voted more for Doug Ford.

I'm bloody ashamed of my neighbours. Bloody hell.

She got sober, and the Fords cut ties once she spoke to the Sun. But she stayed in touch with Lisi.

Congrats @johntoryTO. Now let's close this sad chapter in #topoli history.

I like the cartoon.

Kat: Good cartoon reminder about RF - toppling like Saddam Hussein's statue in the Iraq conflict...

Thanks to UT and all the good links I was able to follow the Election results somewhat easily and I found the
wards in which Chow (only four West End old City of Toronto wards) DF (the "Outer Boroughs" primarily NW and E)
and Tory (along Lake Ontario and straight up Yonge Street basically) dividing Toronto geographically...

This election was a close call noting the percentages for John Tory over DF and the split vote could have cost him
depending on the percentage supporting Olivia Chow...

I noted the percentage voting was 61% which is one of Toronto's highest turnouts in City history - I feel it would
have been even larger had RF been able to stay in the Mayor's race...

RF will be a "Lame Duck" Mayor for the next 34 days - that answers my question on how long John Tory will be
referred to as "Mayor-Elect Tory"....

With RF's health questions it will be interesting to see if he can serve as W2 Councilman but noting that he won
in a landslide he has a mandate of sorts there...

I am hoping that John Tory is the uniter and will usher in a stable Toronto government remembering the Ford Years
Much of North America will probably be watching...that includes me...

He doesn't want to do chairity work then?

I have since remembered her name - LeeAnne McRobb. She follows you on Twitter. Amongst the rather interesting people who follow her on Twitter:

OH GOOD. RT @globetoronto: 'Our campaign is ready to go.' Doug Ford considering a run for Ontario PC leader.

Smart move having him postpone interviews until after he got in.

Toronto's own Tory Cement is probably trolling for votes in Muskoka.

Well, strictly, he only needs some nominators and the fee. But of course he would be vetted (and not do well on that) and spoken to very early on about whether he, rather than his rivals, could expect the support of the party apparatus (namely, not). The lone wolf schtick does not work well for seeking to lead a party, no matter how supposedly constipated the party might be.

Vetting? What vetting?? That's the beauty of the leadership campaign. No vetting, just the fee and the necessary support. Vetting is only for riding nominations.

If Doug does run, expect mass irregularities in membership sign-ups, broken campaigning rules, spending violations, and intimidation of other candidates. You know, the usual.
