COME AGAIN?
Rep. Fattah's Platitudinous Generality of Beneficence and Come-Upping-Ness, or Something

It's already a two-man race for the Democratic nomination for the 2007 mayoral race, with former City Council member Michael Nutter and Rep. Chaka Fattah having declared their candidacies, the latter announcing his intentions just two days ago.

Today's Metro, the giveaway "newspaper" that can almost kill my 15-minute morning ride on the El, quotes Fattah:

We're saying that really we think the city's future is inextricably intertwined with the life chances of people themselves who are Philadelphians.

Huh?

Keep talking like that and it's going to be a long campaign.
