    Many Democrats will be there, so there will be Plenty of Clowns for Entertainment. There will also be several Democrat Magicians "for the children" who will make your Money disappear before your very eyes.

    1. Right, because Republicans are always fiscally sound and have a stellar fiscal record, and they always live within their means. Joker.

    OFf topic but Murph, maybe you could find out or let us know what is the story behind the "Proud Union Home" signs...I understand that unions are sending them to their members? Is that where they are coming from ? My feeling is that these are in place of Obama signs because noone wants to put an Obama sign out. Maybe you could elicit some info from those who post here. I think it is odd that there are almost NO Obama signs ANYWHERE in the 19th Ward...What gives ?

      We saw an Obama-Hurley sign in Oak Lawn.

      It's an effort by the Chicago Federation of Labor to get their vote out. They are not pushing Obama because they perceive him as a loser and they don't want to hurt the rest of the ticket.

      That is what I thought...but when you say "they don't want to hurt the rest of the ticket" I assume that you mean the rest of the Democratic Ticket? It really is a shame though that virtually 100% of the money for political action for unions is given to Democrat politicians when many polls over the years have shown union members split on whether they personally are Democrat or Republican. I know it is not 50/50 but in many polls it is around 40 percent who are forced to give their money to candidates who they do not agree with.

    4. Maybe it's because Republicans don't support unions...?

      Today's Republican party---and I became a Democrat during Bush's second term---is so far right of where it used to be.

      Remember their fantasy president Ronald Reagan was a lifetime union member and president of a union.

      Ronald Reagan could not get nominated by his own party today.

      From today's Sun-Times: "Nash told pension officials he was helping raise his daughters while collecting disability pay, but he’d gone back to work, hired in July 2000 by then-Cook County Sheriff Michael Sheahan as a deputy sheriff, working for the merit board that screens job applicants for the office. " Doesn't sound like this would have anything to do with Matt O'Shea or Tom Dart. But that was a nice try.

    For those of us who don't live in your world, will you explain what it means to sponsor someone? What must one's position or status or background be to sponsor someone? What does this entail? When did this sponsorship occur and why would it have occurred. The news articles seemed to suggest that this hiring happened at least ten years ago, so that wasn't Dart's office, was it? And do aides sponsor people? I'm just looking for clarification.
