It’s finally happened. I’m tired of cynically accepting Illinois politics as usual. It’s an embarrassment! The political incest in this state is over the top. It’s time to simply clean house.
How many more Daley’s, Strogers, or Madigan’s do we need in public office? And where else do you hear people suggest that one ethnic group is entitled to a Senate seat or County office? As for Governor, given our corrupt history with both parties, let’s go for a three peat and get another corrupt governor. 
I hope some obscure candidates run for the Senate seat and for Governor. In fact, I hope an openly recovering alcoholic or drug addict who ran a prostitution ring, did time in jail, got his or her GED, and finished college and law school in jail, runs for office. I’d rather have a candidate run with all their scars and wounds showing at the start of the race. At least, I’d know what I’m getting from the start.

Sadly, none of this surprises me. You have probably heard of the MPs’ expenses scandal here in the UK. This is the latest in a line of scandals that show our politicians have feet of clay. Public confidence in government is at an all time low and I’m guessing the same might apply to Chicago(?)
Nice site BTW…and I’m loving the look of your Flickr photos. :)
