“It won’t matter. Their votes won’t count.
This ain’t America anymore, cracker.”
Too funny....Did Obama send him into the lion’s den?? Sure looks it!!
Poor guy...he thought he would be welcomed back as a conquering hero...
This couldn’t be happening to a “nicer” guy.
His desire to berate and belittle the voters was probably almost overwhelming.
I hope more of the same happens to him so he will be discouraged and drop out of the race!
This story warms the cockles of my heart.
This man is pure evil.

Tipsville: Is this an answer to whom Mayor Daley will endorse?
• To wit: Sneed is told mayoral hopeful Rahm Emanuel was the ONLY mayoral candidate seated at Mayor Daley’s family table at the U.S. Holocaust Museum annual lunch at the Sheraton Chicago hotel Monday.
• The buckshot: And, yes, Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart was there . . . but he has yet to officially announce his entrance into the mayoral sweepstakes. Other attendees included U.S. Sen. hopeful Alexi Giannoulias, his GOP opponent, Mark Kirk, and Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan.
The exit door . . .
Hmmm. Sneed hears whispers preliminary plans are afoot to show Democratic National chairman Tim Kaine the exit door by Team Obama after the mid-term elections. (The next DNC chief would reportedly take complete direction from Obama’s re-election gurus David Axelrod and David Plouffe.)
• The upshot: The exit door reportedly will open up onto an ambassadorship or Cabinet spot. Stay tuned.

Or ask operatives at the Democratic National Committee who are appalled to see the organization totally strong armed into a full on White House takeover. Did you see the new logo? What the hell was that? You want the perfect example of just how stupid and self-involved this White House has become? Look no further than that pathetic new Democratic Party logo.

One can certainly understand why average Americans like Paul Johnson are having none of Emanuel’s glad-handing and hypocritical BS about caring for the voters, which is just a cynical attempt on his part anyway to simply trick more uninformed voters into voting for him, the latest Obama Administration reject. After all, the Chicago area is suffering higher unemployment than the whole US, which is saying something pretty bad, considering that the national unemployment average is almost at an inglorious 10%. Not to mention that Chicagoans’ health insurance is skyrocketing as it is in so much of the country, thanks to the uncertainty of Obamacare. When you think about it, it really is a high act of shameless audacity that “Dead Fish” Emanuel himself is actually smiling his insincere smile to Chicago voters when the administration that he was a part of has caused so much pain to the area—as it has to much of the country.

Savoring it all!
There’s a nasty, dirty little secret about Chicago politics that’s likely to stop Emanuel: many of the blacks are virulently racist, possessing something close to a shower bath, as in gazcomber, level of anti-semitism. All anyone who doubts this needs to do is look to the “Rev.” Wright’s “church,” one of the largest black churches in Chicago; the large, virulent population of Black Muslims led by the “Rev.” Farrakhan; and, of course, our old friend the “Rev.” JJ. Since he has to swim through this toxic soup of political Zyklon B, I doubt that Rahm will ever enter the mayor’s office as anything other than a visitor.
It’s amazing, still, that we have to depend on news feeds from the UK and Canada to get this type of reporting.
I saw a few people shaking his hand;they didn’t seem too happy to see him.
This dipsh&^ thought he could waltz into “Obamatown”,(aka Chicago) and be adorned by all. The “listening tour” would be a duplicate of the kenyans promises...everything to everyone! Not even the takers in Chicago are buying that anymore.
This is how out of touch these people are. He just thought it was going to be a walk in the park and people were going to embrace him because he was a part of the Obama administration.
Think again. This guy is directly responsible for where our healthcare system is going in the next few years. I hope Chicago does the right thing and does not vote him in as mayor.
First, he's too closely connected to the failing presidency of Barack Obama.
Next, he doesn't have the blessing of either the present Mayor or his machine. This means Rahm would have no access to the well-oiled, embedded ward organization necessary to win.
Third, Chicagoans are somewhat insular in that they don't want a carpetbagger perceived as being a D.C. operative coming in to try to grab the city's top spot. Plus, metaphorically-speaking, you need and "O'Something" in front of your name or a "ski" after it with a lot of favorite ethnics in between.
There are many other reasons, of course, working against a Rahm mayoralty including the "dead fish" stories which evoke latent mob and Capone chords in a lot of touchy Chicagoan psyches.
The heckling on the "speaking tour" Rahmbo made yesterday, plus the purposefully-neutral words from Mayor Daley when asked about endorsing him plus no endorsement from Valerie Jarrett does not bode well for Emanuel.
I'm still betting he won't file unless he's suicidal or there's some very strange reason he's throwing his hat into the ring.
There's no "primary" in this mayoral election. If no contender gets 51% of a "general" vote, there's a runoff. There's already a crowded field of hopefuls all testing the waters.
I wonder when the smelt run is in Lake Michigan. There'll be a need for a lot of dead fish to go around in the upcoming mayoral campaign.

Is there video of this?
Keep in mind that a more than a few of these people don’t think he went far enough.
Maybe he likes heckled hearing?
