Dems got their woke-up call with Lori Lightfoot’s loss

Heart be still, there are signs Democrats are finally getting the message that voters are sick to death of crime. Make that some Democrats.

A brouhaha is brewing on at least three fronts, and the good news is that the White House is on the right side this time.

President Biden stunned many in his own party by supporting a Republican-led House bill to overrule a nutty plan in Washington, DC, to reduce penalties for homicides, carjacking, and other violent crimes in the nation’s capital.

No they didn’t. A Dem will still be Mayor and nothing will change.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Stupid is as stupid does. And the Dims are S T U P I D, which makes their voters even stupider. How can you keep voting for people who consistently make your life worse?

The woke up call is that crime is an issue.

Crime is the new political fashion. take note of how you have seen this lately by the manufactured news.

Wake up call that even larger election fraud operations are required as democrats would see it. Nothing based in truth or ethics.

Crime has ALWAYS been the Achilles heal of the Democrats, and they have always known it.

Democrat policies raise crime levels and their own voters are the most likely victims.

ALL the candidates are Democrats.

It’s an old game. Put a radical leftist in charge, she drags things to the left, the reaction puts a less-radical leftist in office, but the changes remain. Things continue to ratchet only leftward.

Smartest move would be to get Paul Vallas in there, start turning things around, and take credit for it while hanging the blame on Lightloafers. Never let a crisis go to waste.

Haha. A man more neo-Marxist than Lightfoot is on the ballot in the runoff. Don’t hold your breath.

RE: Dems got their woke-up call with Lori Lightfoot’s loss

I don’t think so. Lori Lightfoot got her ‘woke-up’ call, but
Chicago will still have a Democrat mayor. Just as they have had for damn near a century.

Chicago hasn't elected a Republican mayor since the 1930s.

Paul Vallas is probably as good as they're going to get but don't be surprised if Chicago elects Brandon Johnson, who ran to the left of Lightfoot.

I don't care anymore. These voters are going to continue doing the same thing while expecting different results. Chicago is dead. The corporate headquarters and investment firms that made it a powerhouse are all leaving or have left and they're not coming back no matter who Chicagoans elect.

They can find another Lightfoot next to any dumpster in Chicago.

I hadn’t heard big business is leaving Chicago like California. I find that great news. Hopefully even more leave both places.
