I had a good laugh over the Saturday Star's front page story showing mayoral hopefuls George Smitherman and Rob Ford in 'Dancing with the Stars' mode. Or was it a parody of 'So you think you can dance Canada'.
Not to forget Mr. Joe Pantalone whose picture was in the inside pages. He was smiling sheepishly like it was prom night!
I don't think it was a confusion on the Toronto Star's part with overlapping titles of these hit TV dance shows. But it sure added levity to a mayoral race that's down to the wire, photo finish, neck and neck and whatever else you may want to call it --- we sure need to laugh --- politics is and can be a dirty game with name calling and airing one's dirty laundry before the public --- so kudos to the Star for showing that these mayoral candidates can let their hair down --- uh, that is, if they have some hair left --- but forget all that --- it was fun and we all needed that especially on the eve of this all-important mayoral race in our fair city.
