You are 100% correct. Chicago please join Rezko, Ayers, Michelle, Wright, Granny, Ali, ACORN, H. Biden, Rod, Daley, Dodd, Raines, Khalidi, Kilpatrick....etc under the bus immediately.

Well, if he can't handle Chicago, what about the whole country? Are you kidding, all we've been hearing is how Sarah Palin is not experienced enough to be VP, and her state is doing fantastic. This report gives us a clue into Obama's lack of success so far... what would make him think he can run a country?

Any area controlled by left liberal democrats in this country is a complete cesspool of human waste. Yet we are on the verge of election the three most liberal politicians in the US, to hold the three most powerful seats in our government? Are you people nuts!

Look at the US and where democrats control urban areas?! It's worse then Iraq for sure.

Running a city is not the job of a Senator, ANY SENATOR. Did we quit school before getting to 7th grade civics class?

His votes count and he does represent his state, doesn't he? If he wants to be President, start improving your own backyard first.

Again, if you are going to make this ridiculous statement, then why are you not saying the same thing about McCain. To repeat my prior post, Chicago's murder rate was 20th in '07. Phoenix's was 21st. I've yet to hear anyone acknowledge this point...

Obama's running on the premise that he is fresh/new, and he is a blank slate, well obviously he's not. He had a chance to fix his own backyard, and it's a mess. He's running on the premise that he is going to save this country, and he hasn't even made one improvement to Chicago?

*L* You should step away from the computer and visit Chicago. There is a reason why 2.8 million people live there and even more visit every year.

So Raleigh, NC with its Democratic governor and mayor, is worse than Iraq? (Cary also has a democratic mayor). Why are you living there again?
