I'd love to see Daley as Obama's Press Secretary. Who else could be better at stonewalling the press?

Obamas first act as president disband the FBI he doesnt want to have to pardon all his chicago supporters. E. Jones is in charge of secret gov contracts for family members and blago is in charge of making promises that wont be kept. (like the fitzgerald one)

Oh, this could be fun. Let's appoint Chicago politicians to national posts. Stroger gets to be the US ambassador to Liechtenstein, hey, it is best known as a tax haven, he'd be perfect there.

I think Chicago will do nicely with O’Bama, not only locally, but Chicago governance will provide a national model. For instance there is already in the works a plan to establish the first "The United States Department of Streets and Sanitation". It will be a cabinet level office, but its headquarters will be located in Chicago. Given that it will over see all roads,streets, alleys,and vacant lots in all 50 states and U.S territories, it will employee more people than the State Department.
