3. If Rahm had gone down, so would your alderman.

You alderman was draped all over Rahm the same way Rahm was draped all over President Obama when he was last in town.

The money was the key to Rahms' victory. Rahm and his 30.6 million and Chuy with his 6 million dollars. Just think if the funds were similar. Chuy didn't stand a chance. I heard on the news that Chuy didn't have enough money to get his point/Ads across the way that Rahm did. The only good thing about last nights election is that all politics are local. So Hillary still has to be careful.

And a few of the people that Rahm had backed...lost. So, his money and hugs didn't go far enough drag all the others over the finish line.
