Signs I have seen which indicate Ford is nowhere near recovery:
Addressing the Addiction: Ford entered "rehab" with the fervent belief his only problem is drinking. He continues to avoid responsibility for the drugs. He isn't addressing the addiction.
Home Fires: He needs to rebuild trust with family, particularly his kids, yet during rehab, he's linked to another woman with alcoholic tendencies, and even brings them to meet up with him and her at Crabby Joe's.
People, Places and Things: During rehab he's linked to a party girl who is still using. He continues to seek out public attention by being photographed in bars with idiots on instagram. He has no interest in avoiding triggers which could spark his latest bender.
HALT: Given Ford's lust for food, tendency to rage at the slightest slight, lack of real friends, and poor physical health, it's a pretty good bet that he will be hungry, angry, lonely and tired more than he can manage. Factor in a tough re-election campaign where his popularity is finally plummeting, Ford won't be a zen master when he returns from taxpayer-paid vacation.
Relationships: Blame and rationalization might as well be the Ford family motto. His ability to forge new relationships based on trust where he takes responsibility for his action will be impossible as long as he is a member of the Ford family.
The Almighty Me: As evidenced by Doug "worst campaign manager ever" Ford's campaign stratagems, the entire plan is to play the pity and victim cards over and over.
Pink Clouds: This assumes Ford ever entered a serious rehab program.
Fordisms: Ford Nation is not subtle. Ford's campaign will be blunt, divisive, and full of denunciation. The autism slurs from Doug will seem trivial in comparison.
Come to Jesus Moment: The line from his enablers is, he looks great, he's lost weight, blah, blah, blah. It's the same old false belief that taking a couple of weeks to unwind and hit the gym will fix years of addiction.
Habit's Power: Ford could have left for "rehab" and stayed out of the public eye. He didn't. Instead, he found every opportunity to be seen so he could pull his "regular guy" act. He isn't interested in breaking habits.

I was thinking the same thing the last couple of times people here brought up the IHTWORF people. I've never really been interested in paying attention to them -- nor in making my brain bleed by reading those comments -- but I looked recently on their twitter and they have... 542 followers. This is not a lot, is it? And it's not like they're all supporters. There are reporters there, probably keeping informed (Don Peat & others) and Ford parody accounts like RoFo's Escalade.
I don't know about the facebook group, I don't have an account so I don't see things the same way.
If anyone knows how many supporters these sites had a year ago, maybe they can let us know if it there's been drop or what. Maybe someone screencapped a page from before or knows how to get stats on followers who have since unfollowed/unliked, etc. ( I think these kind of data metrics are only available to users re their own accounts, but maybe I'm wrong).
I have more Twitter followers than that however, I don't see those folks as being really comfortable in the Twitterverse.

Wow I just found this (don't ask how, I search weird things on twitter, and then follow conversation threads to random accounts, etc)

Never underestimate the bizarre appeal of lining up for an hour for a shitty free burger and a cheap domestic beer.

Rob doesn't use a computer, so nothing could have been stolen from HIS computer.

nah, it's just that both are block writing so it's bound to look similar. the one on the christmas card looks more shaky. Also, Doug would have spelled it "Bedbug's"
