Breaking News: David Oh petless

Incumbent Republican Councilman Jack Kelly knows that his biggest challenge for one of two council seats reserved for the minority party (that would be Republican in Philadelphia), comes from David Oh.kitten-mouse-bunny-dog.jpg

While the two have avoided taking direct shots at one another, Kelly's loudly professed love of animals elicited this from Oh: "Philadelphia would be a pretty darn good city if all you had to worry about was stray dogs."
When told of Oh's remarks, Kelly, the scourge of foie gras farms and friend to the city's animal shelter, posed this critical question: "I would like to know if Mr. Oh has a pet?"
Lest he be labeled a pet hater, Oh revealed exclusively to Heard in the Hall that he DOES NOT currently have a pet, but insisted he is "quite the animal lover," and he once had a Rottweiler named Rocky, a Brazilian Mastiff names Xena, and a Jindo named J-Dog.
Oh also mentioned that he has a wife and 5-month-old baby girl.
Kelly has a mutt named Cassidy he says he got from the pound. And, oh yeah, four children and a wife.
Now you should be ready to vote.
