If It's Not Close, They Can't Cheat

Philly's Democratic Mayor accidentally stumbles into the truth:

MATTHEWS: Let's talk resources. how much money are you getting to run this city operation, this get out the vote campaign? a couple million bucks? How much money is being spread around by the campaign to win Philadelphia? I heard you're aiming at higher an 350, but to get that, that's a lot of street money, to use a term we're all familiar with, isn't it?

STREET: That's an awful lot of money. We will distribute -- we have distributed to our party workers probably between -- between $750,000 and $1 million, and that will probably be doubled or tripled by the other efforts that are going on.
