Politics Marty Markowitz Is Now On Twitter, Which, Shockingly, Means He Wasn't On Twitter Before

As you might expect, the feed thus far includes posts timestamped within regular banking hours, and real-time smartphone twitpics of Marty himself; his office has not responded to a request for comment on how Twitter's 140-character limit might affect his signature rhetorical style, but his first Tweet certainly did include the word "Fuhgeddaboudit," so, you know.
[UPDATE, 3:28pm:] Not 10 minutes after this post went live, the Boro President's director of communications replied to our request for comment thusly: "I think that Twitter is a great medium for Marty’s quick wit. Marty letting a character limit get in the way of a good joke? Fuhgeddaboudit!" (A reply, he pointed out, exactly 140 characters long.)]
