Embattled Toronto Mayor Rob Ford has a tumor - CNN.com

I wish the best for Ford's health, but he seems to represent the views of a lot of people, and it's quite refreshing to have a real person as a politician.

Actually that's not enough said. He's also a hell of a city administrator. Call him out for his faults, but his opponents don't call him out for not knowing what he's doing. Largely people are mad at him because he's done what had to be done.

Rob Ford is running second in the latest 2 polls. He had no hope of winning a 2nd term. This will give him a gracious out - if socialized government healthcare doesn't kill him.

40-42% John Tory - conservative businessman and former Conservative party leader
28% Rob Ford
21-26% Olivia Chow - leftist - the late Jack Laytons wife.

John Tory cements lead over Rob Ford as Olivia Chow’s campaign implodes in Toronto mayor

What did he do?

I thought you were going to say brain tumor. He's been entertaining, I'll say that much for him.
