Keep in mind that at this point, there are more people in Philly running for mayor than there are people who actually vote. [BobBradyWorks]
>>> You probably already know this, but if 5,000 people don’t show up outside City Hall on March 1 to rally in favor of Milton Street’s candidacy for mayor, he’s going to shoot a rocket out his ass, eat a baby and pull a wooden nickel out of his ear, all at the same time. [DN]

Check out the latest City Council goss: Northern Liberties Neighborhood Association ex-prez Matt Ruben just threw his hat in for City-Council-At-Large, going up against Sharif Street and, if this chart is to be believed, a whole gaggle of other so-and-so’s. Ow. Head hurty now. [MattRuben/Numsum]
