(ETA: Is this what Milton meant when he said he would be "legally radical" on Good Day Philadelphia today? And, by the way, didja know Bob Brady, Dwight Evans and Tom Knox have been "wimpetized"? And can you believe him asking us to "look at his past"? Dave Davies of the Daily News did that recently; results are here.)
Mayoral candidate Milton Street has been arrested in New Jersey.
According to CBS 3:
Authorities said a Moorestown police officer recognized Street, shopping at the 7-11 store on Camden Avenue and Lenola Road, who had outstanding traffic warrants.
CBS reports that Milton is in jail and can't get out until Tuesday, because no one has posted bail.

Honestly, this is the best story in town.
PS: He's not going to insist he doesn't live in Jersey, is he?

The "Street" Family Circus continues it's long stretch playing in the Philadelphia Area.
The worst mayor in the country has the worst brother in the country......lock 'em both up.

It is a shame that there is no "Mayor's Mansion" that we can give Miltie. Other than jail, he appears to be homeless!

Keep Milton in! After all, like Mayor Street said "The brothers are in charge!"
Besides, we need some comic relief!

He is a joke just like his brother. No one with that track record should ever be considered for public office. He is just trying to get attention. If he wants it that bad, all he has to do is marry Federline, shave his head, and get tatoos and he will have the top story on WPVI.com for a week.

Milton Street should be completely ignored in favor of real candidates that actually care about our great city and have intelligent plans to put into place should they be elected mayor. We have serious problems to solve, and we need serious people to solve them -- and Milton Street's 15 minutes are up.

Milton Street sounds dumb, acts dumb, and is dumb. Philadelphia might fold as a city if he ends up being elected.
