This is exactly what I have been telling people. He has been murmuring about leaving his seat for some time - perhaps he figures it's better to go out in a mayoral attempt rather than just drop off council? I have a hard time believing he'd muster enough citywide support to win.
My hope is that we see a whole bunch of councillors throw in for mayor - even if one of the nitwits wins, it's only 4 years of pain and if it gets a handful of others out of council then it's totally worth it.
