Really? I've liked Champaign-Urbana the few times I've been there.
Oh yes...the "Alabama" part of Pennsylvania hates Pittsburgh and hates Philly even more. When it comes to statewide politics, the Philadelphia suburbs truly control everything...they are primarily Republican, but are willing to vote Democratic. Former Philadelphia mayor Ed Rendell (who is also formerly the head of the Democratic National Committee) recently started his second term as PA governor, thanks to those suburbs.
