I think this Marxist pile of dog feces currently occupying our White House was too much for Daley to take. There is a big difference between old-fashioned Democrats like Daley and the new breed of selfish, America-hating communists who currently dominate the party.
Daley is the creep who strategized and led the Gore recount in 2000 - suing his own country just to hold office. It was Daley who talked Gore into rescinding his concession on Election night.
Eastern European influence has been significant in Chicago politics since BEFORE WWI. In fact, it was Chicago and Buffalo Eastern European pressure groups who got Wilson to commit to dividing up Austria-Hungary based on language and religion, and for sticking Yougoslavia together without respect to religion and language.
They haven't changed. The Daley family infiltrated this morass and found ALL the skeletons in concrete hipboots (the way they do that in Chicago).
We were all better off with Daley in the White House than back in Chicago.
Right on. Your way with words is worthy of mention, also. Hopefully, others will see the changes that have taken place in the Democrat Party over the last fifty years.
