Campaigning Ugly, Stephen Harper’s Tag-teaming with the Ford Brothers

I’m sure the Harper campaign thought having the two would arouse base Conservative voters, and in these late hours of the race, go largely unremarked-upon in other quarters, but the publication of a salacious memoir by Rob Ford’s former chief of staff Mark Towhey is sending them off message, especially after they’ve spent weeks promoting their supposedly squeaky clean family values. Maclean’s has an excerpt from the new book.
