Come election time, you'll have to vote for the other person, and hope there is a good candidate to follow, as sometimes it is Hobson's choice regarding the choices.
Apparently, calling them out, on-line, or having them on TV shows, seems to be the thing to do.
Mayors Behaving Badly is one Internet site.
What is terribly surprising is that politicians, like Rob Ford, Muskoka Lakes Mayor Murphy, fail to even pretend to listen to others, and listen to all of their constituents.

Then there is Rob Ford and Jimmy Kimmel
He is such a sad case. What do you suppose? Narcissistic? It truly does take my mind off of other important stories; Russia invading the Ukraine, the rape culture and allegations at my alma mater uOttawa.There are several No Rob Ford and Rob Ford Must Go websites popping up!
This one dispels the myths that the man saved a billion dollars, myth by myth.
I.E., 3) “I’ve saved over a billion dollars.”
FALSE.
As the Star has previously explained: hundreds of millions of Ford’s claimed savings are phantom “efficiencies” that did not save the city money at all; $200 million of the claimed $1 billion is from the elimination of the car tax, which is not a government “savings” in any traditional sense; $24 million is from hiking user fees, which is money out of people’s pockets — and, crucially, Ford has not counted the costs of his other decisions. If he is counting the elimination the car tax, for example, it is only fair to count the imposition of a new $745-million tax to pay for the Scarborough subway extension. The net figure is nowhere close to $1 billion.
They also have fake candidates who promise to smoke dope not crack!Published on 4 Mar 2014
Mayor Ford explains why he agreed to being a guest on the show and tells us why he hands his phone number out to everyone. Jimmy reads some negative Internet comments he received about having Mayor Ford on the show.
He continues to spew his lies and obfuscations...

- Rob Ford's #TCHC record: $100M+ larger repair backlog, 10,000+ more people on housing wait list http://bit.ly/1ncikE8 #topoli
- The City's debt was 2.9b when Ford took over. Now it's close to 4b and there'll be another almost 1b issued for Scarb subway
- Ford's increased debt and gave unionized workers pay increases when they offered a pay freeze. Police got 11.5%.
- Ford got rid of the vehicle tax but property tax, TTC fares, water rates, garbage fees, rec fees and more all went up.
- Plus, Ford talks a good game but I've paid a lot more under Ford than I did Miller and services are worse.
