However, I don't plan on ever being his landlord. He is one of many minor players in town who seems to be trying to boost his name recognition with a hopeless (for him) political race. Why else is running? Did someone put him up to this so he can the split the vote among African-Americans? The guy has absolutely no chance. Anyway, I haven't made up my mind who to vote for. Although I am Republican, the State's Attorney's office is one that can have a Democrat, as long as it's a Democrat that is not TOO beholden to the machine. One can dream.</p> http://chicagoist.com/2007/11/30/alderman_owes_l.php#comment-1243306 http://chicagoist.com/2007/11/30/alderman_owes_l.php#comment-1243306 Comments Fri, 30 Nov 2007 11:42:35 -0600 <p>Does this mean the "Chicagoist" isn't throwing its support behind HowHow, because they didn't even mention that he was running for States Attorney? That pics a keeper though! I'm wondering who the "Up" brother's as in "Ward" and "Fed" are going with the for Cook County States Attorney? I was trying to get over Brooking's sleazy look and feel, but now its kinda hard. Hummmm I wonder where he got that sleazy look and feel from? Perhaps his father, former state sen and funeral home director Howard Brookings Sr.? </p>
