Meet Philly's Sexiest Candidate (The Next Mayor)

If you saw the cover of today's Daily News, you saw the words "Bob Brady" and "Sexy Singles" dangerously close to each other. If I can just modify the Jenice Armstrong's call out for the sexy singles a little bit:

How do you like 'em, ~~ladies~~? Educated and intellectual? Or brawny and a little rough around the edges? Or do you do you just want your ~~man~~ candidate to be fiiiiiiine?

As you can tell, my photo editing skills are limited to Microsoft Paint. Your comments on Brady as a candidate and as a mayor are welcome.

UPDATE: For serious, thoughtful discussion about Brady as a candidate/mayor, I recommend the good folks over at Young Philly Politics , which has posts on the subject here, here and here. As you can see, some folks actually want to know what a candidate stands for and what kind of policies he would try to enact, rather than just go on other people's word that he's a "leader."
