Even so, editing posts is not cool. If there is an issue, the post(s) should be deleted.

For all practical purposes the post was deleted. It doesn't make it appear anyone said something they didn't.

Well, let's not make any drama out of it, I didn't even think it was among my better ones, I just felt with Chuy in the news I had to.

I don't know, but I'm sure whichever one of the other Wisemen did so had a good reason. We clearly don't make a habit of deleting posts.

House Ethics Committees don't investigate non house members and the US Attorney for the Northern District has a long history of not pursuing in exchange for stepping down. Again, I have no knowledge of any impropriety. I am just providing hypotheticals.

It's really pretty amazing what we get as elected officials in this city. Can anyone name a measure Chuy Garcia has EVER implemented? No one even voted for him as mayor. They voted against Rahm. Now he has somehow parlayed not being Rahm into a congressional seat.

This definitely deserves the shoutout and good for Chuy but ooofah the things that happen.


What measure can Chuy ever "implement" as one of 12 Cook County Board members?


The same as any other legislator. Even county government occasionally has a good idea.

If it's the first post, may as well just delete the thread.

This. And if not, the edited post should be signed by an admin with the reason or the edit.

The "edit" posts is fine but an explanation as to why would be a nice guide for future posts to know what was avoided.

bigfan would delete posts all the time with no real reason behind it. At least with the "edit" we know it happened but maybe reply to the thread and say "We got rid of this because of X".

I don't know why the local news services have assumed Chuy will win. I would say that Moreno has at least as good of a chance. He is a progressive and younger, which will play better in the areas that vote in the greatest numbers. He also is a sitting alderman in a ward with the greatest amount of development in the city so he has a bit of an organization and the ability to raise money. He has "the look" of a young liberal lion so I think Chuy is going to be the one who looks like the old line party guy versus the young outsider in this election. Funny how the worm turns.

I'm not sure about this but I think Moreno is PR which will also raise the long standing division of PR v. Mexican.

I don't think Proco Joe has thrown his hat in the ring. It's Ramirez-Rosa who is threatening to run.
