Come on, be a man and own up to your rather sophomoric error.

Couldn't be a racial oversight, of course not. By the way, isn't Mr. O'Brien's policy leadership at MWRD President at least as significant as that of the chief court clerk?<br />BillUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07463246004185281211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-38116298214594139042009-10-19T07:45:16.573-07:002009-10-19T07:45:16.573-07:00Sorry to split hair here, but Danny Davis' dis...Sorry to split hair here, but Danny Davis' district covers more than just Chicago's South Side.

I also said he would have an uphill climb. A lot of council people take on Daley on an issue or two but where was Preckwinkle on the Olympics? If you think you can move through the city council without getting into bed with the machine on some level, you don't know city politics.<br /><br />If Stroger is so hated, how did he keep the sales tax in place? I don't think I said he was loved just a member of the machine.mike volpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02999118519606254362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-27590478222478339382009-10-19T06:47:40.800-07:002009-10-19T06:47:40.800-07:00Vallas dropped out last spring - the republican is...Vallas dropped out last spring - the republican is Roger Keats. Tresser is running as green and is of no consequence to the Democrats. Preckwinkle is hated by the machine and led the charge against the parking meter deal. Stroger has been abandoned by the nearly everyone who would get him bodies to knock on doors. This blog is an embarrassment to its author, who got nearly every single fact that s/he could incorrect. Do some homework next time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
