Daley Not Running?
- I was here two nights ago, talking about Mayor Daley running or not running for re-election and how every politician in town is talking about it, including the mayor's brother, Bill, who is the only person in town -- other than the mayor himself and his wife, Maggie -- who knows what Rich Daley plans to do.
I reported that brother Bill has been saying, in private, that the mayor is intending not to run.
Bill Daley called me and the Channel 2 news director and said angrily it's a lie, that he has never said to anyone his brother intends not to run, and he asked me to retract what I reported. I told him no because I trust my source, who has no reason to lie. But to be fair to Bill Daley, I should report tonight that he says he believes his brother will run for re-election.
Ten bucks says Skippy is being played by the mayor. And twenty bucks says Shortshanks is putting his underwear on Jacobson's head the way the Cubs used to do when Skippy was their bat-boy

VERY funny, SCC! And we certainly need something to laugh at these days.
RIP Alex, Tom, Thor, Michael - heroes all.
Not only is he running, he thinks he will get 90% of the vote. Arrogance....
I hear from a very reliable source the Supt. is done. Put a fork in him. Daley will not renew the Supt.'s contract. He can suck ass as much as he wants, but he is gone.
Daley will run again...He has to run! What the hell could he do other than lord it over everyone, No drivers? No bootlicks? No yes men? No connected rats to split the cash with? The snivelling lil coward would wither away if he wasn't mayor. We are stuck with this lil rat, get use to it.
Hey, Skippy got it right this time.
In fact, Bill Daley told me the same thing, in private, just the other day, that the mayor is intending not to run. But then he angrily retracted his statement.
I don't know who to believe anymore!
That's where Skippy developed that fetish which explains that shit-eating-grin.
I hope to God he doesn't. Chicago doesn't need the Daley family holding the reins of power here anymore. They've drained the trough dry.
Skippy is a little weasel. In all the years he has been on TV, I never could stand him. The thought of Shorty's bloomers on Skippy's head is damned funny.
He'll die in office, just like his dad did.
He is unbeatable, even when he is down....Jeez-even old Man Stroger won an election as he was paralyzed and drooling. This is Cook County.
OK that was funny, but I remember seeing Walter at more than one Police fundraiser. I talked to him at length at Dan McCoy's and he seemed like a pretty decent guy.
Dan many of us remember you and wish you were still with us. We could use you now.
Be careful my friends. This is the old bait and switch routine. Daley will circulate petitions, while his friend and handpicked successor also does. Daley will scare off any contender. Daley will withdra\w. His lackey, Houlihan or Dart will stay on the ballot.It will be too late for anyone else to get petitions signed in time.The lackey will havefour years as mayor to build himself up as invinceable and as the white candidate.
what's the difference between al capone and Mayor Daley?
the feds actually tried to nail Capone!
We are stuck with this lil rat, get use to it.

WRONG! greasy shanks the arrogant is going down! And chances will be better if you two fuckers stay home on election day. Pussies!
how many DUI's has Skippy been charged with?
Daley will run again and again. he does not want the books to be opened while he is around. his father died in office for a reason.
We need to vote against this jag off and get 4 of our friends and family members to do the same.
Somebody had a brilliant idea in the Sun Times today.
They said that since the mayor is always trying to privatize things he should privatize his,and other politicians, bodyguard details. Then those prima donnas could be returned to regular police duties and help out a severely understaffed police department. What do you say King Ritchie there's probably a good 40-50 officers tied up on various political details. Since Ritchie hates handguns he could hire a crew of unarmed rent a cops for his detail. He would only have to pay them about $10 an hour so look at the big savings!
If shortshanks doesn't run again u can bet your ass that JFled would not be retained. With shanks and JFled out of the picture could there be light at the end of the tunnel?

Oh, what great news! What a joke. Puh-leez, we've already tolerated him through most of his insanely overpriced contract. So, he's going to be gone in five months. Big deal.
The key to taking back the city is for this midget retard to go, then JFled is gone and Masters Masters Masters is gone too.
I saw a panel discussion somewhere (Ch 11 ?) about the possibilities in the mayoral race and it was stated that IF Daley could be beaten, it would, most likely, have to be by an "outsider" and not be by anyone currently in the city council. The reasoning was simple and sensible:
Anyone running AGAINST Daley would have to be an ANTI-Daley candidate and how in the hell could ANYONE in the Council claim to be ANTI-Daley when they are supporting 90% to 95% of everything that Daley shoves down their throats?
I can't even name most of the Aldermen, so on name recognition alone, they lose. Then, Daley has appointed OVER HALF of the current Aldermen due to deaths, retirements, incarcerations etc. None of those people would dare run against him. There is a VERY small group who MIGHT stand a chance, but Daley's got the built in response to their candidacy that they voted for almost EVERY issue he proposed!
Anyway, just tossing that out there.
I don't believe a word Daley says.

Shorty could anoint his successor, and be the power behind the throne. He would have all the driver, bootlickers and yes-men he wants long into senility.
The sweet smell of victory with Daley about to be defeated. I can't wait to make history by voting Daley out of office.
Daley is definitely up to another diabolical and self serving plan with whats going on here. Theres been excessive braggiose of EB recently, and nobody in their right mind can speak well of EB with a straight face. Could this ugly thought be whats going on here?
Watch Daley laterally move JW to be full time homeland gang/terrorism security chief (or whatever title JW's other hat was supposed to be), which won't break JW's big money contract.
Then Daley will make EB the acting supt for as long as Daley wants and needs.
Putting newly promoted Tony Corrupthers in a south side position, keeping Henny Penny in a west side position, and mac daddy reverend Brown in the head honcho position will guarantee the African American vote for Daley.
Real policemen know that the reverends, gangs, and aldermen control every move in certain populous of Chicago. Many know that those 3 "bosses" have relationships with the 3 above "controllers".
Daley knows he must die in office. If he is not in control in the highest power, he is extremely vulnerable - and the AUSAs would love to have that window.
Daley is going to do whatever it takes for him to remain mayor of Chicago. Just like always.

Chicago’s Police Department Ranks: Thin and getting thinner
At Wednesday’s City Council meeting I introduced a resolution with 19 of my colleagues as co-sponsors calling for a hearings with the Police Superintendent and City Budget Director on how the vacancies within the Police Department are going to be filled. Currently there are over 700 openings for officers in the department. Academy graduations have been slowed and, as a result of the recent completion of the contract arbitrations, more officers will be retiring; more than 100 are already pending. These facts not only mean that our communities are in greater danger but our sworn officers are as well. The openings place an undue burden on the men and women that fill our police department, forcing them to work more hours and spread themselves thinner. At the hearings called for in our resolution we will ask the administration what their plan is to fix this situation and ensure the safety of our brave officers and our neighborhoods.
Heard the traffic aids under the direct supervision of Sgt Northside will take over the mayors detail.
John-Boy needs to be supervising people of his caliber. Also, he needs the money for his 3rd. summer home he bought.

Look if this guy is your clout, good for you but think twice about posting this drivel as some sort of sign the Aldermen are on our side or in any way about to throw the mayor under the bus.
This shit is just a friggin smokescreen. City council can have a million meetings on why the department is so low in manpower. Jody Weis has nothing to do with hiring anybody. He doesn't make the decisions on that. He has no control over the budget. If they are serious about holding a meeting, then hold it with the Budget office and the Mayor. This alderman scores no points in my book. All he's doing is grandstanding. Sorry you can't see through it.
please, please, please, get someone, anyone, CPD/CFD, retired or active, on the fucking ballot.
The majority of the CPD and CFD are intelligent, decent people. Let's find a current or retired P.O. or firefighter, and get behind him/her. With the spport of the rank and file in both dept.s and with us asking our friends, neighbors and relatives to vote this person in, we have a damn good chance of beating the little prick. Let's stop whining and do something TOGETHER, while there's still a city to save from the mutts and knuckleheads.
015 P.O.
