The E-machine is afraid, very afraid. The re-election house built by the Mayor is nothing more than one of built of hay or sticks. There is nothing solid there, no house made out of bricks.
The E-machine is afraid that by one huff or one puff by the the hair of his chin-ny-chin chin, the big bad wolf will blow down their candidate's house.
You know who the wolf is, why none other than Bill Marra
City Hall is in pandemic mode right now. They know that Bill is out there in the community talking to people but it is July already and no decision or at least nothing public yet. This was not Eddie's game plan. Bill should have announced that he was running for Council in Ward 4 by now so that the E-machine, CAW and NDP (never mind the other Ward 4 candidates like Ed Sleiman) could knock him off. They scared him off running for Mayor didn't they?
The last thing that Eddie needs is a Bill Marra on Council to provide an alternative to him for four years while he is carrying out his next career move. Actually, that is the second last thing. The absolutely last thing is Marra being elected Mayor!
So there is a Star Story again and headline "Labour seeks candidates. 2003 municipal election results cast doubt on impact of unions." If someone got Labour's support against Eddie it has no value. And who was the only 2003 candidate mentioned, Bill Marra who "lost to Eddie Francis by thousands of votes."

I assume that the E-machine understands that Bill is not stupid. He understands that Star attacks will take place whether he runs for Mayor or for Ward 4 Councillor. Instead of scaring him away, it should firm up his resolve that Eddie is afraid of him running for Mayor! Bill I am sure still has huge name recognition and that is the scary part for the little pigs. Bill's name and credibility can cause major problems.
So guess who is afraid of the big Bad Marra....
