How he come up with a million dollars?
Posted by: Jake at December 10, 2008 01:36 PMBack in the '80s, when I was living in Chi-town. I recall a small entry in the daily political gossip section of the Trib, that spotted JJ the elder on a flight into Chicago bending over with a stack of hundreds protruding from his back pocket. This was before photoshop.
Frankly, my read of the situation: Are Illinois pols stupid? Yes. Are they anomalous? No.

Posted by: Charles at December 10, 2008 02:14 PMOh grand. Now the all the anonymous personalities are beginning to leak out of the woodwork. Then Guboner Blagoflgtrvtz will cut a 'deal' with the feds for white-collar-prison instead of federal pound-me-all-night-in-the-ass-prison, and all the really juicy names will come out.

Posted by: Casca at December 10, 2008 03:45 PMCasca, before your fantasies get out of hand, two words of warning: Joe Biden.
Posted by: Mark Poling at December 10, 2008 05:38 PMI prefer a dolt over a sneaky bastard. When I choose my opponents, I always go for the idiot, ecce NDS.
Posted by: Casca at December 11, 2008 12:05 PMPersonally, I'd take Nixon over Carter if I were interested in the health of the nation, although I'll be the first to admit it's a disgusting thought experiment.
In other words, Obama is not the enemy. We're stuck with him, and yes, I'll take the sneaky bastard over the addled bloviator. So I hope Obama is as guiltless as he says he is in regards to Blags.
