I can see Ford winning this.

That's kinda odd reasoning.
I don't disagree that Ford could win, which I admit has changed from my original opinion a few months ago, when I thought he might even be forced to resign. But I don't see him winning cause he gets votes from fellow drug users. I'm not even sure why that would enter into someones thought process.
Hey this guy smokes crack just like me! I love him!
One, if they are heavy drug users anyway, they probably won't vote. Two, marijuana users tend to vote liberal, as they are the ones with more lax drug policies. Three, to that very point Ford has a record that is hard on drug users, and drug treatment facilities, so not only isn't he a friend to them he's acting very hypocritically. Four, drug issues don't tend to be a huge factor in voting patterns.
