Someone please explain to me what the ‘Chicago way’ is? These people makes Chicago sound like gangsters still run it. I am aware of political corruption, but this to me seems of different scale completely.

I know McCain was not perfect, but I am most sure we would not have this problem with him.

Thanks

Cook County (where Chicago is) has been a cesspool of intrigue, political corruption and criminality since I was born there in 1935. (I wasn't the cause).

My Dad, who was a yeast salesman in Chicago during prohibition, had hundreds of stories to tell of the mafia and politics in Chicago back then.

The "Chicago way" refers to all that history!
