It's all over but Al Taubenberger's shouting

Al Taubenberger, you better be ready for the fight, my friend. (Somehow I doubt that considering how nice he was to Nutter at the forums he attended, complimenting him for most of his ideas.)

I should have put this up before the counting began, but here was my prediction for how the vote was going to fall: Nutter 33, Knox 29, Fattah 18, Brady 15, Evans 6.  (My co-workers can verify).

With 96 percent reporting, the final results are Nutter 37, Knox 25, Brady 15, Fattah 15, Evans 8.

So, anyone have any suggestions for what I should do with this blog?

The winner: Michael Nutter

The primary losers: Tom Knox, John Dougherty, and Jannie Blackwell (anyone want to write the obits??)

Also loser: Chaka Fattah

[Friends representing all of Philadelphia]

Congratualtions to Michael and the voters of the City of Philadelphia for rejecting the Fraud, Tom kNOx, Janie Blackwell and John Dougherty of the Evil Empire.

Fattah will be fine - he should embrace Michael, apologize for the things he said and recommit himself to Washington and bring home the assets the city needs.

Dwight is right where he should be and it is very important to Philadelphia that he remains as a force for us and we know he will work together with the team.

And Bob Brady -well he will work our great with Nutter, since they already have a great relationship. He defeated Dougherty and his nitwits and thugs and learned that we need to get rid of the backstabbers in the Democratic Party that take money from knox and shame all of our hard work. People have gotten the opportunity to really get to know Bob and people really like him. He will bring evryone under the tent -but please leave out the Three Diabloes Blackwell, KNox and Dougherty -they are a total disgrace and bad for any role in our city!

I think it would be great if both the Metro and the Daily News kept their blogs going now that the primary is over. They provide great political coverage that might not otherwise make it into the media. I say keep it going, change the name, and shine a light on local politics.

Hey, FRAOP, you pea-brained, bed-wetting dunce, check the "Wins" and "Losses" columns before you embarrass yourself any further. Local 98 supported Seamus McCaffery, Bill Green, Jr., Ellen Green-Ceisler, Bob Mulgrew, Blondell Reynolds Brown, Bill Greenlee and Michael Erdus, among others. Everyone of them won their election. Yeah, Knox lost. Local 98 only got seriously behind Knox in the past couple of weeks. In retrospect, Knox would have fared better had 98 gotten involved earlier in his campaign. 98 had one loss against double-digit wins. I'll take a .900 batting average any day. Knox and 98 acquitted themselves honorably. I can't say the same for you after reading this drooling, moronic post.
