11 days and counting

Here’s your Friday morning update on the road to the Pennsylvania Primary:

* 11 days until Pennsylvania goes to the polls on April 22.

* Chelsea Clinton was in town yesterday, stumping for mom at both Villanova and Saint Joe’s campuses. Today she will continue her college tour at Slippery Rock and Edinboro out in the hinterlands.

* Sen. Hillary Clinton will be in Philadelphia today to talk about crime and urban violence. She says she has a plan to cut homicides in half.

All of which should be fairly interesting in light of what happened yesterday in the city. The Philadelphia City Council passed five new gun control measures, which Mayor Michael Nutter promptly signed and told his new police commander to start enforcing.

* For the Sen. Barack Obama camp, Caroline Kennedy will be back in the area, campaigning in King of Prussia with an event at 2:30 at the Bear Rock Café. Then she’ll do an event in Germantown with undecided voters at 3:30.

* Obama will attend a forum on faith and public life Sunday night at Messiah College.
