Phillies Fans Show Little Love For Street

Mayor Street just can't catch a break.
Three years ago, waving to the crowd as he stood on the grass at the just-opened Citizens Bank Park, the mayor - you know, the guy who got the new Phillies ballpark built in the first place? - got booed.
And he got booed again just a few moments ago by the throngs of red-shirted and red-capped Phillies fans at the City Hall rally that is still ongoing.
And it wasn't just one boo. It was a series of boos. Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo!
Did you hear it?
(Note: No information was immediately available about how many of these fans live and vote in Philadelphia.)

He got some "Kensington Cheers" at the Bono Liberty Medal ceremony last week, too. Very little, very polite applause.
