At this point, all Rob Ford has to do is go about his daily life and hilarious things just happen to him. Like on Thursday, when on the way to his first big campaign speech of the year he got stuck in an elevator. “Get away from me!” Ford reportedly shouted at reporters as he rushed to a restroom after arriving 45 minutes late to the Economic Club of Canada fund-raiser. He was more composed later, according to the Toronto Sun. “‘What can you do?’ he said, just before stepping on another elevator.” Maybe this new thing called stairs?
