Why Did Eddie Chicken Out?


I understand that CBC TV had scheduled a TV debate to be taped on Wednesday for viewing on air before the election. However, I have just learned that the Mayor has pulled out.

Really, can you blame him? He expects to win bigtime so why give any kind of publicity to people who will say that he has made some mistakes or has not done what he promised to do. If there is a debate and he makes a big mistake, there it is for everyone to see it. No percentage in that. He has everything to lose and nothing to gain.

Now why Eddie is so scared is beyond me. It's true that he has no control over the debate. (No Procedural By-law he can fall back on if the going gets tough). I know that he does not like to be attacked (remember what Alan McKinnon did to him in Tecumseh). However, the Star told us "He's been knocking on doors, shaking hands on the streets and preparing an election file to respond to his critics. "

I don't get it...when he had the chance to "respond" he cut and ran.

BREAKINGNEWS UPDATE

Another exclusive story uncovered by the BLOGmeister.

We have cracked the Mayor's secret Blackberry code. The rumours are true. Every single action that Eddie makes on camera at Council is choreographed by the E-Machine and telecommunicated to him via his Blackberry. Nothing is left to chance

To access the top secret Blackberry portal to send instructions/requests directly to Eddie Francis , please go to Click here for Blackberry Secret Code and type in your request. See if you can get him to follow your instructions and implement your policy. (I suggest you start by suggesting he “build an arena now” and see how he responds…)

Now YOU can feel like the Eminence Grise and control Eddie!

PS Let your friends and colleagues know how they can play in the political "backrooms" too by forwarding this BLOG to them. Egg them on!
