Yup. When the Trib broke the identity of Morales' bribee on Saturday afternoon (webpage), I immediately called my brother overseas. We watch this stuff as much as anyone. The bribee is the same Tony (Pucillo) that is responsible for Kass naming the Dept. of Transportionat the Dept. of Tony.

It seemed a bit strange that the guy has been picking up union checks in Mexico for the last few years, but he only gets brought in a 5 months before the next Presidential election. If there were a strong Republican waiting in the wings to run for, e.g., the open senate seat, it would make a bit more sense. But, if this leads to Daley (there are sooo many things that do, but they don't follow the trail), his indictment only leads to frustrated citizens. Not a republican mayor or city.

In any case, I'm convinced that Daley is looking out for two groups of people. One: his Bridgeport friends and family, and two: the mob. And the latter is the only group he never flips on. He flipped on Tadin before. He flipped on is cousin. He flipped on Ald. Huels (11th ward). But he never flipped on the mob or their friends. Never.

Meantime, the number of contracts they've won from his administration is staggering.

And I can't even say a word about the things I personally know, that aren't public.

Is Chicago dying?
