What's next for Johnny Doc, the Phillies' phenomenal first half, and the story behind Blobfest
Manage episode 428615674 series 2454167
Former labor union leader John Dougherty wielded immense power in Philadelphia, but, in the end, he flexed his capital with too much force. We put his federal prison sentence in perspective.
Speaking of a flex, the Phillies put together a memorable first half of the season before the break. What else do they need for the stretch run?
We also ask key questions about the role that Pennsylvania and, more specifically, the Philadelphia suburbs, could play in the agenda the GOP promotes at the upcoming Republican National Convention.
