Trippi comes to Philly

Joe Trippy, of Howard Dean campaign fame, is apparently planning to weigh in on the 2007 Philadelphia mayoral race. Specifically, he's been hired as a consultant to Tom Knox, the guy I know least about in the race -- apparently I'm not alone, as Dan at Young Philly Politics says his stances are virtually unknown. Trippi will probably bring good strategy, as well as independence from local power influences, but I wish I had ways of learning about Knox other than the image that gets crafted in such a kiln.
