But what about Rob Ford's comeback mayoral run in 2018?

Rob's misdeeds aren't the sort that cause you to rise as the restless dead.

[w. dow rieder (from livejournal.com)]

They might be the sort to cause someone else to animate him as a shambling horror, though. (more of one, and after he's dead, I mean)

"But, some of my most highly paid friends are Jewish!" seems to be his go-to move here.

Or, in the words of Seinfeld (the character), "But if I like their race, how is that racist?"

Now I'm picturing Rob singing the "I need a Jew" song from Family Guy.

Follow-up from Doug Ford:

“I find it ironic. With the ethnic vote, I know my polling, we’re way ahead in the ethnic community. For him to call me a racist, this guy must be desperate.”

Asked what he meant by the ethnic community, Ford said he meant “new Canadians that are allowed to vote.”
