Chicago alder-people are one happy family. They vote for each other’s projects, feel a “commitment to each other.” Thus the chairman of their black caucus. Room for others in your fam, Alderman?
Along comes Rahm. “Rahm don’t want trouble,” says Ald. Walter Burnett. He’s “smart enough” to know that. “Playing . . . games and taking it on the chin. It is what is what it is.” Now and ever shall be.
Ald. Eddie Burke, however, has more money in the bank — $8 mill vs. Rahm’s $2 mill. Battle brewing.
