My first visit to Chicago was for the Democratic Convention.XX This was the convention where tear gas was all the rage in Grant Park. I was so pleased when I saw the same park packed border to border with happy, joyfully tearful people on Election night.
We thought Illinois had become the place of light for the nation.
But then…
The governor was rudely awakened and dragged from his home in sweat pants to be brought before a judge and charged with a variety of counts having to do with the sale of a Senate seat.
There were no charges for bad hair, but of that he seems obviously guilty. The rest is still to be worked out in the Federal Judicial system.
However.
According to the news this morning he still has the power to appoint the Senator. What’s wrong with that?
Will hubris prevail?
Stay tuned.
