I don't live in the city, but if I did I'd vote for Gery Chico. But Emanual still should be allowed on

Apparently the ballots will be printed w/o Emanuel's name on it starting today. If he makes it on via the IL supreme court they will be trashed and reprinted. Love to be the vendor hired for the printing. lol

I thought for sure he'd win his case 'the Chicago way' but perhaps Rham and the true power behind the scenes in IL, namely Mike Madigan and Jimmy DeLeo aren't as chummy with Rhambo anymore since a 'friend of their's' Tony R. went away to 'college'. After all we have a local court system that has fixed slam-dunk murder cases (for between 20K and 5K) on more than one or even three occasions and involving more than three judges. They have since come back and reversed only one of those trials. (The murderer was retried despite the double jeopardy law was found guilty and has since died, while serving his time, in prison) The judge in that particular case put one in his head after learning he was being called before a Grand Jury. A second judge died 2 months after being released from jail after completing his 189 month sentence at 82 or 83. Sometime I guess Karma does seem to work. We'll now see what she has in store for the North Shore Baby with the huge bank.

Just in the IL Supreme Court just stayed the Appellate Court's decison and Emanuel is at least going to be included in the first printing of the ballots. According to his lawyers. Early voting starts Monday. Chicago Politics at its best.

Hardly. "politics at its best" would be Emanuel not having any trouble staying on the ballet in the first place.
