1. What I find most interesting is that Obama is well connected to the Illinois/Chicago Democratic political machine.  The genius construct of Mayor Richard Daley and currently presided over by his son.

   In all of United States history, I do not know of any political machine as powerful or corrupt, with the possible exception on Tamany Hall in New York.

2. Tammany Hall lives Doc!

   Is this a great racket — excuse me one more time — country, or what?

   The whole thing makes me proud to be a member of the Tammany party. Yes, the party of Slavery, Segregation, Secularism, and Sedition — that Tammany party. The Tammany Party whose motto is, “Stealing Elections Since Boss Tweed.” The Tammany party as in Tammany Hall, which was once led in its earliest days by none other than that great Democrat, Aaron Burr, who nobly served his country as Thomas Jefferson’s vice president, shot and killed Alexander Hamilton, and was later tried for treason.

   Makes me warm and fuzzy all over just thinking about my party’s sterling history. And while the Tammany party ain’t what it used to be, it sure is great to see Chris Dodd emerging as a throwback to our glory days.
