Ford is unelectable in 2018 and the notion that he somehow is out to fight for the interests of the taxpayer is ridiculous. This man pushes his own brand to serve his own interests perpetuating himself or members of his family in public office but really what has ANY Ford ever accomplished in office?  Seems that to some cutting taxes is the be-all and end-all but how is that realistic in a growing city that has serious revenue problems in being able to cope with need for improved infrastructure?  This clown promised to build ten billion dollars worth of subways and really had no plan to pay for it beyond going to Ottawa or Queen's Park for the funding to do so.  Or how about his asinine proposal to build a Ferris wheel and sail-in hotel on the waterfront?  
The real problem Toronto has with its politics today is a dearth of solid candidates willing to come forward to run for council or Mayor and when a Ford is presented as a 'sensible' alternative you know you've hit rock bottom.
