This sting has the Mayberry Machiavellis written all over it. And as per usual, they shot themselves in the foot by overplaying their hand.

Street is not an inspiring mayor and he has some very questionable deals to answer for, IMHO. However the timing of Buggate is just too suspicious. By blowing the lid off this a few weeks before a close election, they dealt him the race card he's playing and it's working. Philadelphians would rather stick with the devil they know than have the republicans shove a new one down their throats.
