Now they can if this court decision set the precedent.
They can just buy a cheapo one-room kitchenette condo in a lousy city neighborhood while actually living in a nice 'burb, even across the nearby Wisconsin border if they want...... and say it's their "intent" to live in their city pad (when they get caught). They'll win the case as the precedent is set for "intent".
This is no joke, the radio commentators are saying the ruling will have a profound impact on many things in Chicago political and governmental affairs....in other words, unintended consequences.
So now the Chicago voters have a full menu of corruption to choose from on election day in February.
Obama's mission is now accomplished....to get Illinois electoral votes in 2012. He's got a slimy operative situated in the right place.......and the required numbers of dead, illegal and multiple-voters are assured on election night.
It makes no difference how the rest of the state votes, they can't overcome the sheer volume of the Chicago Machine (unions and ethnics) vote plus the slap-happy limousine-liberal vote of the north shore and the socialist-subsidized farmers in the rural areas.
If and when Rahm is elected, it'll no longer be the Daley Machine, it'll be the Obama Machine.

“Chicago firemen, policemen and other public safety persons are required to live within the city limits.”
Once they accept the job they are required to live in the city. But when they apply for the job, they can live and apply from anywhere. How can they claim this ruling changes anything?
