So, as a Philadelphian originally, I am used to strange politics. This is the city that votes for dead people, elects felons, bombs whole city blocks and generally makes local politics into a full-contact sport. But I must admit that even I was taken aback when I saw that The FBI had bugged the Mayor’s Office.

Looks like there is going to be a whole lot of explaining on the part of the FBI. Street isn’t the most popular mayor Philly has ever had, and the race for reelection is going to be tight. If it turns out that this bugging is linked to anything untoward on either side, life could get interesting.

Only in Philadelphia…
