Mayor Nutter threw a perfect strike from the mound at the Phillies' home opener, and one analyst predicts a continuing honeymoon for Nutter:
"He almost has the perfect touch."
St. Joseph University political analyst Randall Miller (right) says that Nutter has been throwing strikes as well in his first 100 days at City Hall:
"He has addressed publicly almost every major issue. And if he doesn't have a solution, at least he suggests that he's going to work on it. He's taken on some hard cases, whether it's casinos or crime, and done it in such a way that people have had to respect his arguments."
Miller says the city's honeymoon with Nutter may turn into a full-fledged romance, but looming on the horizon are contract talks with city workers, where the unions could be the ones throwing a strike.
