You don't have to endorse it to see how it did work for the average citizen (don't conflate the two). And I'm going back to the start of the first mayor Daley and before that.

I hate to agree but the Daley's were wonderful and cared about Chicago as if they owned it. Which in part they did. The city sucked under Harold Washington almost as much as under Jane Byrne (why he got elected) and the only reason Byrne got elected was a blizzard.

I have no intention of voting for Emanuel (I'm leaning toward Miguel del Valle right now, even though he has no chance) but I absolutely think Rahm should be allowed on the ballot.
