Reply to comment by ConfiaEnElProceso in Former Philly Mayor John Street endorses Rebecca Rhynhart by ConfiaEnElProceso

I don’t necessarily feel that way about it.

That review of the police was insanely thorough, and I am sure it pissed off a LOT of people. I’d assume (given how corrupt Philly IS) attempts were made to skew/alter/change the findings before it was released.

And, honestly? Did you see the clown car full of ACTUALLY corrupt council-people who are running? No matter what, she is in a class of her own above those circle jerks.

I think that was what was heartening about her candidacy prior to this: that she would take on entrenched interests effectively. I'm not telling anyone else how to feel about it, but this move seems to me to show she would NOT govern in that way. The john street way of governing seemed to be greasing palms and under the table deals. It feels like cutting a deal with the devil but selling your soul in the process. Maybe it makes her mayor, but what kind of mayor?

I hope we get to see. I have more hope in her than all the others combined.
