“I knew that the race is nonpartisan. I mentioned that in post #27.”

I know you knew, the explanation was directed to scottinVA and other FR’s who think the Chicago 1st round mayoral is a partisan primary. The comment about Braun who’s already started hammering Chico was for you. She’s shilling for Rham. Don’t forget Emmanuel was charged in some black circles with abandoning Obama, as soon as she loses she’ll endorse him when he makes the runoff.

I don’t know why your messin with White unless your setting up for a state rep/senate race in 2012. Watch that re-map. I still think they’re gonna dump on Lipinski creating 2 “hispanic” districts. As well as cut up another GOP district.
