I actually think Connelly has done a reasonable job as alderman, though his predecessor (Burrows) set the bar pretty low. I'm not sure what he was thinking when he decided to run for mayor though - he doesn't have as high a profile as McIvor, but still has the baggage associated with being on the current council. He also doesn't seem to have stood out from the pack in any way yet. Unless he comes out with a killer platform and performs really well at any public debates, I just can't see him being a major factor.
