DA Candidate A Total Boyfriend Experience

The Daily News‘ Dave Davies wrote yesterday about the candidates for district attorney, the first race since William Penn was governor that there isn’t an incumbent in the race. (The reference Davies uses is, “Ronald Reagan was president and the Eagles quarterback was Ron Jaworski.” And while Philadelphians voted, Wilson Goode was dropping C4 on voting booths!)

One of the potential candidates is Daniel McCaffery, the brother of noted attention hound Seamus McCaffery, who rode Eagles Court all the way to the state Supreme Court.

Here’s why our boy Daniel (good name, by the way) is absolutely getting the Democratic nomination:

“After I left the D.A.’s office in ‘96, I went to work for Democratic city committee and have been pro bono counsel for the last 12 years,” McCaffery said. “I’ve serviced just about every elected official and ward leader, and I’ve been involved in every one of my brother’s campaigns.’ “

Humm. Well, that’s quite a work ethic. Bodes well for his time in the DA’s office.
