re: #359 palomino

OK, so Daley was powerful and gave Obama the go-ahead. So what? Does that taint all Dems in IL?

Either way Obama is hardly a Neanderthal or tough guy like the Daleys. Will never forget the images of Daley (Sr?) at the 1968 Dem convention. While a Senator complains about the police going wild outdoors, Daley screams at him, in full view of all cameras, to “get the fuck off the stage” and worse. That ain’t Obama.

Because he is a gentleman, he is somehow less a product of the Chicago Way?
