Daley is not running for president - why does this even matter? and who do you think is the guy who is going to knock Rudy of the primaries?
The drive-by media would love nothing more than to have a Hillary-Giliuni matchup. They can't lose either way. That's why we keep seeing polls ad nuseum pushing Giuliani at the invincible frontrunner.
"Daley is one of the nation's most Republican Democrats..."
What a bunch of BS.
Many of he rats could run to the right of Rino Rudy on some issues.
Heh... Daley as President. Pleeease... the federal government is corrupt enough.
Giuliani is to the GOP like a person told by a doctor,"you must take a blood transfusion or you will die". You know unwanted anti-bodies could be within the blood you are about to receive but unless you take the blood"YOU WILL DIE" He is the GOP's only salvation regardless of his shortcomings.
You gotta remember the yardstick... this is the home of socialist Barack Obama... who in two years has one of the most liberal voting records in the senate.
There's funny stuff flowing into the drinking water from Lake Michigan.
Too soon to tell; between Rudy, Mitt, and McCain, one of the three will drop out and the remaining two will split the "moderate" vote allowing one of the 2nd-tier guys to move up and challenge.
You gotta love opinion pieces from the City of Big Shoulders, where EVERYTHING is for sale, and the corrupt Democrat machine usually buys it all - with YOUR tax dollars...
That's just Chicago race politics talking: since Daley has handed one black candidate's after another's ass to them, it stands to reason that he's a Republican. Goofy, yes, but I've seen a lot weirder stuff here in Beirut-by-the-lake.
Rudy's an OK guy but just a bad candidate but if we're heading for the ass-kicking that it looks like we are in '08, he may be the best guy to take the brunt of it.
If anybody knocks off Rudy, as things stand now, it'll be Romney. It won't be McCain, because the base will never trust him. Hunter and Tancredo are definitely more appealing, but as of now, I don't see either one being able to raise the money or Big Mo' to mount a serious national campaign.
The federal investigation of Chicago city hall corruption has already led to indictments and will continue. Though Daley hasn't been accused of anything yet, somebody is going to roll over and it might finally implicate the mayor. Daley could never stand the scrutiny a presidential campaign would bring. Rats would come out of the woodwork like they always do.
'Zactly. There should be a barf alert on this one. I'm going to try and find a picture of the author. I'm positive that I know what he looks like although I'vr never seen him.
I've always said Daily 'deserves' to be Chicago's mayor until he can't do the job anymore.
He could still run the city from behind bars if needed. There are higher powers that be that actually call the shots around the city.
Some of those powers can be heard yelling from time to time, "Hey guard, open up. I gottta make a call."
Sorry - I assumed that 'LEFTY "JOURNALIST"' would be barf alert enough. As far as Monroe Anderson is concerned, think Urkel.
Daley can keep winning on just the votes in the machines left over from the old man.
