At current, I “support” Meeks. By “support,” I mean “despise the least.”
We will get nothing - NOTHING - from almost all of these candidates. Meeks is at least Pro-Life, and has lambasted the funding of abortions, etc.
I have settled on the sad fact that Meeks is the “best” candidate in my mind who has a shot at winning. The only thing we’ll get from him is an actively Pro-Life Mayor; still, that one thing is one more thing than we’ll get from anyone else running - and guys like Rahm will use the office to punish people they don’t like. I fear folks who will start writing their own enemies list from the moment they get elected.
There are no good choices who can win- absolutely none. But I’d rather get one thing than nothing.
As far as Rahm goes even if allowed to run I find it highly likely he'll win. He won Blago's seat but honestly I never heard of him before he ran for Blago's seat.
The sad thing is the average IQ of a Chicago voter is about as low is it goes. It is all about bribing voters with cigarettes and booze.
