OBAMARAMA . . .

The power washer: Sneed is told senior presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett was in town Thursday and spotted at the corporate headquarters of her good buddy/window washing whiz Neal Zucker. The bevy of Secret Service agents accompanying Jarrett reportedly caused quite a stir.

Hah....Daley won't endorse Rahm or he would have done it by now. Neither the working stiffs who live in the City of Big Shoulders nor the Daley's, pere and fils, had and have no use for Rahm's followers comprised of the north shore limousine liberals, the artsy-fartsy ballet-going crowd in the plush lake-front high-rises, the quiche-and-white wine intellectuals, scientists and commie perfessers and their families living on and around the Red University of Chicago campus, and Obama's small army of community agitators, oops, organizers in the old Obama stamping-grounds wards.

If you want to run for mayor in Chicago you have to be Irish, Polish, Czech, Irish, Serbian, Slovakian, Irish, Latino, Black, Latvian, Irish, Croatian, Lithuanian or Irish. Rahm doesn't have a chance.

Looks like BO has given all his friends SS details...Is that his new jobs? Well we know one place that the budget can be cut. Loose the crew! Can congress just choose not to fund them? Did he hire a bunch of CHicago thugs?

Chicago aldermen offended by Rahmbo’s royal send-off

Chicago aldermen offended by Rahmbo’s royal send-off

Dead carp and all. Some carping back home...

Hey, I consider offending Chicago aldermen a good thing and if it’s The One’s anointed one who does it, all the better. Let them snarl and show themselves for what they are. Sun Times:

Others went so far as to advise the president of the United States to butt out or risk a political backlash.

“The resentment is someone who appears to come in from out of state with a bunch of money — and no significant ties to the South or the West Side — and appearing to clout and buy his way into an election,” said Ald. Howard Brookins (21st).

Someone using clout and buying his way into an election? Are carp bottom feeders?

Getting the Rahm-around:

Rahm and the Blago factor. The timing of the new trial just prior to the mayoral election this spring.

Emanuel Would Need to Explain $17 Million Bank Pay
Rahm’s White House visitor’s trail.

We could end up with lots of dead fish. In Chicago, that would be an improvement. Take each other out. Make my day.

More. Tribune on the Blago/Rahmbo implications:

But the Tribune has learned more about taped conversations Emanuel had as well as what he told investigators about efforts to get Blagojevich to accept someone who had Obama’s approval. They offer a deeper glimpse into his late-inning involvement in negotiations over the seat.

Let’s say it directly—the incoming Obama administration’s whitewash report after Blago’s arrest did not mention the RahmbObama contacts on behalf of Valerie Jarrett.

...And then there’s good old Tony Rezko: Rezko ready to testify against Blagojevich

More. Scott Stantis cartoon above.

...Kristol on Rahmbo. Bantam cock...
