Rob Ford's Toronto

[Jimmi T]

He has a solid lead in the polls, so at this point, his strategists are telling him to go on cruise control, so to speak. Goldkind is doing a lot of the grunt work in attacking Doug.

You think Goldkind is affiliated with Tory somehow? He's like his attack dog to frustrate Dougie (though he throws the odd jab at Tory--maybe just to keep up appearances?).

Jimmi T:

Not sure why it would be necessary - Tory could have done it by himself.

AoD

Tory should just play sick for the next three weeks. Every time he talks he sounds less inspiring.

As a radio host Tory made more sense. He thought Ford should've kept his hands off Transit City, he wanted to prioritize the DRL and he even often mused about burying the Gardner for the sake of "city building". If he's elected I wonder if his handlers will let him be himself.

Nah. Why would a lawyer risk tarnishing his reputation like that?
I think Ari has just had enough of the lies and the machinations the Fords shoved down our throats.

Great piece from John Lorinc:

"Should Doug Ford prove he’s donated four years of salary to charity?"

I know Ari, and can say with confidence he is not affiliated with Tory.

Not a chance. He is just in a better position to attack Doug.

"That's not what I said. Asshole" I believe

How does Robbie even now what he said. It's not his fault he was in a crack fuelled drunken stupor.

No talk about Postmedia buying the Sun chain? This could be of particular interest if you don't like Wormington and SAL.

I was wondering how it will effect the Sun. Maybe they'll now offload all of the National Post's Toronto coverage to the Sun?

Ew jimmi. You sound Ford-ish

Me, Ford-ish? That's a first! lol

Wow, hadn't heard that. A bit O/T, but that will be pretty bad for Ottawa, whose only two English-language dailies (Citizen & Sun) would be under the same ownership.

Oh, hell no. Irene's a delusional bullshit artist who thinks Ford cared about everything but himself and omigod, his critics are all elitist downtown haters! Those bullies!
