Been reading him for decades. He's a not just good at writing about politics, he's a really excellent writer and storyteller.

Always wished he'd publish a collection of his favorite columns. But I guess he doesn't "own" the rights to them (i.e. Chicago Tribune property?), so he can't do that.

A pity. I still remember one column from the 90's he wrote about going hunting with his brother when they were teens. Wish I could find it again.

He also did graat stuff about the Daley administration but the Trib has changed when McCormack left the scene. Remembering when I tried to get it ro run an expose about thefts on the CTA during the John L Waner for mayor campaign only to have them run it the day after the election.
