Last night’s Democratic gubernatorial debate brought me face-to-face with the horrifying realization that Illinois Dems spent the better part of the last decade behaving like Republicans.
The message was reinforced even after the debate when I discovered several e-mails from the campaigns essentially carrying on the same attacks.
Meaning—they don’t mind paying for the public schools their kids attend, but don’t like paying taxes for the other kids.
And it came just a few weeks after Mayor Rahm arm-twisted the city council into unanimously voting to close mental health clinics in some of our poorest, most high-crime communities.
By then I was ready to hit the whiskey I keep in that supercool flask with Prince on the front that I bought from the Kaleidoscope Kollective on a recent trip to LA.
If I’m wrong, the Prince flask will come in handy.
