Nutter Picks Up Lapsed Catholic Endorsement

Yesterday, Tom Knox supporters attempted to gain votes by distributing the flier above (click to enlarge), which alleges Michael Nutter and Bob Brady are lapsed Catholics.

Michael Nutter? He was Catholic when it was convenient for him, so he could get a quality Catholic education. Now? He quietly left the Catholic Church to become a Baptist, probably because his polls told him it would be a smart move. ¶ Bob Brady? He admitted that he never attends mass.

Somehow, I don’t think this is going to work as well as the mysterious flier distributor wants it to. Do you know how many lapsed Catholics there are? Michael Nutter might’ve just picked up a couple votes from the young, bored Christmas-and-Easter crowd. (Bob Brady said he’s a regular churchgoer, so that part appears to be just a lie.)

Nice boost for the Prep there, though. “The school people will sit through Church for!”
