Is there any politician as ill-suited to a city as Hillary Clinton is to Philadelphia?
Philly is a rough, hard-scrabble, cantankerous, but ultimately big-hearted town. The people who live there will drive by the busload up to New York to boo Donovan McNabb when he’s drafted by the Eagles, but then fall in love with McNabb once he turns out to be a hero. It’s the city of Frank Rizzo and Rocky, Allen Iverson and Buddy Ryan. It’s the city that endured the MOVE bombing and Bud Dwyer’s public suicide. It’s the last city in America where people care–really and truly care, in an emotional and cosmological sense–about sports.
