Rob Ford Rehab -- Toronto 'Crack Mayor' Getting Treatment After Drunken Rant

Party's over for Toronto Mayor Rob Ford ... who says he is going to get treatment to "deal with his issues" -- even though he's right in the middle of a re-election campaign.

Ford's decision comes just days after a Toronto bar patron recorded him ranting and cussing about a political opponent on Monday night. The Mayor was reportedly heard saying he'd like to "f****** jam her."

Ford told a Toronto columnist he is "ready to take a break" and "get help."

The mayor was not specific about what kind of treatment -- inpatient or outpatient -- he would be getting. As for the campaign ... he said his team is urging him to stay in the race.
