Daley Announces Re-Election Bid
Well, not precisely, but what else could this mean?
Who ever heard of an open casting call for a $110,556-a-year government job in Chicago -- a city whose Democratic ward bosses famously said, "We don't want nobody nobody sent"?
But that's precisely what Mayor Daley is doing before choosing new aldermen in the 1st and 29th Wards. After making 33 aldermanic appointments, most by following the predecessor's recommendation, he's posting the equivalent of a "Help Wanted" ad on the Internet.
Interested candidates are invited to send a cover letter to Room 406 at City Hall by Friday with an attached resume and three letters of recommendation from community leaders, business types and area residents.
So this, along with Shortshanks' transparent attempt to have the Inspector General investigate aldercreatures, is positioning Daley in the hilarious position of running as a reformer against the corruption he has aided and abetted for the past quarter century! Only in Chicago.

We have to come out in force to stop this. Pick a candidate and lets start knocking on doors and making signs.
It's time for him to take care of his personal life, wife and idiot son. Chicago needs a new direction and this guy is shot. Now we know why the USA can have a president for life.
Its a good thing he gave potential candidates a whole day to get all the info to his office. Sounds like the Police Department's way of announcing "opportunities."
SCC, The famous Chicago saying is "Don't send nobody, nobody knows."
Even a blnd man can see through Daley's latest "reformer" BS:
1) Daley passes ordinance that allows his Inspector General investigate Aldermen for the first time.
Shortshanks isn't fooling ANYONE.
I changed my mind Da Mayo's new book will be called "The Audicity of a Dope". Nuff Said!!!!
daley and his crew of political thugs & pissants have been screwing the people of the city for wayyyy too long. Let him open all his books and let himself be investigated. Shit rolls down hill so sooner or later the aldercreatures will be implicated.
They've been pissing on us for way too long ! When we complain in the media, the media tells us it's just raining!

NOW THAT WAS FUNNY!
stroger just got blasted out of his seat in the primary--- being a democratic candidate in this county does not hold as much power as it once did--- people are voting more independent than ever and hopefully if daley runs again a fed up populace will summarily show him the exit door....
This was a joke! One day notice to post a resume and get three letters of recommendation! Daley just did this as a joke to play down the fact of so many aldermen going to jail over the years! Is this funny, Mayor Daley? Ask Ike!
he s gonna tell the libs.. im a boner-fide reformer. he gonna tell the minority communities...that evil man/that runs against me is gonna take away your freebies and make you actually pitch in. oh, the humanity! wanna bet?

==============================
Daley and the aldercreatures have already been implicated. Many of them were listed on Sorich's clout list and he was Daley's fall guy. All of them were in bed together, all of them need to be shown the door together.
I'm sick of seeing the assholes from the Coalition for Better Government, the HDO, and various precinct captains/ward heelers from the SW and NW sides getting special treatment on the job: overtime, offices, vehicles, cushy assignments, less work, monitoring by supervision, stellar evaluations, and they are never subject to discipline.
Daley and the aldergoofs are responsible for all of this and the meritcloutorious promotions on the CPD.
Oh God, here we go again. That's it, I'm outta here.
He will get re-elected again. The same people every year (Cops) complain about Daley then they vote for him anyway. Their excuse: "The other canidate wasn't strong enough".
There are candidates coming that will call bullshit against the machine and combine. The storm clouds are forming. Nov 2 is the start.
Whoever gets elected (Daley or ???), the ass clowns will keep electing these a-holes so long as they keep the govt. tit flowing.

Will be taxed at levels unprecedented in all of history to make up for the political rats.?
You ARE victims already.
Secret Senate meetings in the state of ILL.
Get ready.

This is exactly why I am walking away from my mortgage after paying cash for another house. No more $3000 a month nut for me. I can now start buying more guns for the breakdown of society.
Don't send nobody, nobody knows." Sounds like a Crookago aka: the mistake by the lake, slogan and explains why Scott Cohen, a totally unknown, a nobody, won the Lt Gov position.
Crooks and dumb, rather, crooks are dumb and Crook County is run by crooks.
Daley has refused to debate the past three elections. Somehow, he must be forced to engage in a few debates with the other candidates
