I just got back from the final installment of the Economy League of Greater Philadelphia's series on Great American Mayors. Mayor Shirley Franklin was just as good as advertised.
She's a straight talkin', joke-crackin', spitfire. She's clearly very smart but she's focused and pragmatic as well.
I'll be editing video of the event probably all day tomorrow so hopefully, loyal blog readers, you can get a sense of what I'm talking about. (Although, I think most of my loyal blog readers were at the event anyway. If you were, well... you can see highlights.)

Ditto on what Mr. Mous just posted.
Wasn't Ms. Franklin back here in 03' defending Street over the bug? Didn't Ms. Franklin endorse Chaka Con in the democratic primary?
Far from someone who could be focused and pragmatic in my book.
