Moseley-Braun enters Chicago mayor's race
2010-11-22
So the choices (and remember, death is not an option) are:

Rahm Emanuel -- a vituperative POS who's only job at running something was Bambi's White House. That went well.

Danny Davis -- a genial, life-tenured Congress critter who, to be kind, is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Carol Moseley-Braun -- because nothing makes you ready to be mayor of the third largest city in the U.S. like being a failed, one-term U.S. Senator. And Ambassador to New Zealand.

#5  As a former longtime southside Chicago resident, Rahm's style will fit in nicely with the crudity needed to run that Metropolis. Tough man for a tough town.

#4  Exactly, FR. Carol is doing what she's been told to do. She'll get another ambassadorship or board appointment out of it in late summer, perhaps by recess appointment. That takes care of her until 2013.

#3  Chicago politics at work... CM-B entered to split the black vote. Rahm wins in a walk.

#2  Ambassador to New Zealand sounds like a lot more fun than mayor of Chicago.
