This county board president candidate has some wizardry to perform for us:

Cook County Circuit Court Clerk Dorothy Brown tried to hit all three opponents on how she’ll boost tax revenues by creating jobs.

“I believe in new ideas, not new taxes,” Brown said — a shot at Stroger’s penny-on-the-dollar sales tax hike. [Oh? No new taxes?]  “Unlike my opponents, I have saved taxpayer dollars, [not] costing taxpayers by either voting themselves pay raises, voting to increase taxes or making bad decisions on investing our money.” [Not voting to increase them? When? Where? At the annual meeting of court clerks?]

It’s the round table approach:

Brown . . . placed . . . emphasis on economic development and tapping new sources of revenue that would not increase taxes. “We need to create jobs for our people,” said Brown, who proposed setting up an economic development “roundtable” to find ways to do that.

[Italics all added]

She wants to avoid increasing taxes, which is nice.  Repeal the remaining half-cent Stroger increase?  Oh yeah, that too.  Later.

And she wants to create jobs!  Like the jobs she has already created.  You know the ones.  Come on, think about it.  Come on . . .
