One can cite turnout and the death of democracy in Allentown. But that's been the case for years. There's never any drama in an Allentown election. They richly deserve what they elected.

It is sad that all those ill-gotten gains, [close to 1/2 million], that he received for his federal and state campaigns, are used for his criminal defense. If he had to spend that amount out of his own pocket, you would have seen a contrite, remorseful and apologetic individual; not a lying, unremorseful and deceitful felon. If he thinks it has been expensive so far, wait until he goes to trial.<br /><br />Citizens of Allentown, behold, the self-born savior [mayor for life], keeps digging a bigger whole for himself and a lame try at re-election in 2017 looks improbable!
