IN AN EXHAUSTIVE POLL taken during happy hour Friday afternoon at Dirty Frank's bar of registered voters questioned about their preference for mayor among the candidates running in the May 15th Democratic Primary, Center City attorney John Rolllins is the frontrunner by a huge margin. (The Dirty Frank's poll has a error factor of plus or minus 50 perecent ). Rollins' qualifications for mayor consist, essentially, of him being a regular at Dirty Frank's, and the fact that he's a dead ringer for Michael Nutter.

Nutter, who has bee running against John Street in his TV ads (not that that's a bad thing -- if only Street were on the ballot), looks so much like Rollins that once one of Nutter's campaign staffers approached Rollins at the Art Museum mistaking him for the candidate. And, frankly, enough is enough. That's why Rollins' friend and Photoshop enthusiast Al Stegman prepared some campaign literature for candidate Rollins featuring Nutter's photo and Rollins name.

It's time voters have a chance to decide which Michael Nutter they like best.
