We won't have the Toddster to kick around anymore

And unlike Nixon, it's hard to foresee some dramatic career turnaround, though there's probably an elementary school somewhere in town looking for a new hall monitor.

At least he's going out classy!

Preckwinkle says when her staffers requested information, they got mounds of unorganized or incomplete paper, among other issues.

Cook County government has never had a reputation for squeaky clean dealings, but things appeared to get worse under Stroger. A court-ordered monitor says he violated political hiring more than 150 times since 2008.

First of all, any station whose call numbers start with K can't be trusted when it comes to C(r)ook County news. Everything gets murky and distorted when it crosses the Mississip.

Second, there's nobody to blame but Demcrats on dis one. They kept a comatose guy on the ballot so they could handpick someone instead of going with Forrest. Of course, voters could have not picked the comatose guy either, but in Chicago, the dead might have sympathized with him. The, the tax and spend libruls that they are, they decided to raise taxes. Then, just like Kerry, they were for the tax increase before they were against 'em. Left poor Todd out to dry and took away half his slush fund. Well, half the increase anyway. So why should he give a phokk?
