Living and breathing in the Second City
Is there any way for this NOT to happen? The Tribune reported yesterday that she was “thinking about it” and CapitalFax thinks it’s a done deal.
I must confess I don’t even know that much about her, but I just don’t think I can stomach another nepotistic election. I know that’s the Chicago way and that Chicago Dems clearly care more about power than the honesty and integrity of American Democracy. But I’ll beg. Seriously, I’ll get on my knees in Federal Plaza and beg. Can’t we just please have someone else run for Governor, someone with a real life and who cares about something other than politics. Pleeeaaasssee. See, I’m begging.
The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.

In Chicago or Cook County they could run a monkey for office and as long as there was a letter D next to his name, he (or she) would win.
