Ford deals with the question of whether he double-crossed citizens and county commissioners by running after he said he would not run if he was appointed seven months ago.
Questioner Jackson Baker says Commissioner Mike Ritz says he wouldn't have voted on Ford if he knew the interim mayor would run.
Ford said he doesn't feel like he misled anyone, and was not aware of RItz's position. He heard from voters who wanted him to run, and he had unfinished business. He mentions the funding of the Regional Medical Center as one of those accomplishments.
In my opinion, based on news reports, Ford lied through his teeth on this matter, although, like practiced liars like used car salesmen, he never let himself think he was lying, because it would make his act less believable.
If you want to know why Ford ran (and beat Diedre Malone down [a person I don't admire, btw]), ask David Upton. If he BS'es you, call me.
