[Philly] New Mayor - Same Corruption

The new Traffic Court judge had over 50 violations on his record last year before he made a deal with the city. He will be eligible to drive a car again in 2011.

A new City Council member is facing charges of using taxpayer money to fund his campaign.

Another sad day for the law abiding citizens of Philadelphia.

Read about it »abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?secti···=5876119.

"Mayor Nutter likes to say it's a new day and a new way in Philadelphia. But some of the old ways are apparently still hanging in there. We have a new traffic court judge who is a notorious scofflaw, and a new council member who's under investigation."

Don't know about the city council thing, but the citizens of our fair city have no on but themselves to blame for Singletary. There were articles published prior to the election about his traffic/driving issues. He lucked into the top spot on the ballot and, as predicted, won despite his record. Sad, but I don't think there was anything shady about his election. Just people not paying attention to what they're doing in the booth.

I do have faith that Nutter really is cut from different cloth than the past few mayors. He may not be able to do all the things this city really needs, but I don't think it'll be from lack of trying or being too busy lining his own pockets. The real question is, will the voters pay attention to who's standing in his way and vote them out when we get the chance.
