Great Reading Ahead! The 19th Ward Gets It On!


For pure political sports viewing and reporting, the 19th Ward in Chicago will give Illinois politics fans some WOW reading in the days to come. This Ward is home to some very visible political people and is always a great ringside in the election season.

The Daily Southtown is one of the best news sources for local life in Illinois. With great home grown talent like Phil Kadner, Kristen McQueary, John Hector, and editors like Ed Koziarski readers and voters in the southwest Chicago and south suburban areas get a fair and balanced view of the issues and the people in political life.

In Sunday's edition of The Daily Southtown, one of my favorite beat writers Courtney Greve hoists the checkered flag and announced 'Boys and Girls, start your engines!' ( an homage to all my mossback friends - both of you - who really believe that watching cars make endless left-hand turns is sport).

The race to unseat Alderman Ginger Rugai (D) in 19th Ward will be loaded with smears and tactics that will make the Rod and Judy Show look like public television. In the interests of 'fair and balanced' folks - I like Ginger Rugai. Developer Tim Sheehan is also a great guy and putting on a spirited and open showing. Last time candidate John Somerville is intensely handsome- 'strictly MGM.' Mr. Joe Kennedy is a veteran and a gentleman, who ran a very above board campaign in the last go-'round. The boys have their hands full.

Keep reading The Daily Southtown and remember its was The Daily Southtown that gave the founder of the feast - Political pontiff Rich Miller - his leg-up into the Bigs.

This looks like an interesting race indeed.

Levois, my friend, stayed tuned; there will be gallons of red and and some dental matter in the spit bucket before the final bell.

Patrick Hickey is an Orangeman Calvinist who is a fan of Ian Paisely and donates 10% of his income to Flint and Locke at Peoples Law Office to undermine our law enforcement and court institutions instead of a 10% to Holy Mother Church. He is a WASP liberal Republican anti-union Walmart shopper.

Hickey is also a freemason in good standing.

All True - my Christian name is different Pat is short for Patagonia.

Whatever Jerry Joyce tells Hickey what to do is how Hickey will vote.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Meet the Somervillains! They can run the same material right into the ground better than a Seinfeld Spin-off - and get cancelled as quickly!

You'll get a Kick out these mapcap losers ( they make the Cubbies look like the House that Ruth Built) with their whinning and pineing for a place at the table - and dinner ain't even ready!

AND -Watch them gobble the cheese - it's a howl! And hold a press conference to explain that they were force- fed the Camenbert - LIKE JOE MOORE'S GEESES! HeEEEYUCK!

The Somervillains - there's only couple of them ( alot fewer than in 2003), but they sure can make noise! Now, that's Entertainment!

This Fall - Meet the Somervillains! Just don't make eye-contact!
