Here's another article: http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/chi-ellen_degeneres_personalsmay06,0,4201780.story I'm no fan of Duh Mare. But when we start letting anger blind us to the facts, then we've got a serious problem.

The link works for me. And I'm not trying to earn "brownie points" for anybody. Here's a relevant quote, though: Apparently it wasn’t one of Daley’s famous blunders, as Chicago media—including me—reported over the weekend. The mayor was in on the whole thing. "He knows her name is Ellen," Jodi Kawada, the mayor's deputry press secretary, told me Monday. "He's been a fan of hers for a long time." Ellen on Monday released this statement, according to her publicist: "I love that the Mayor calls me 'Helen.' It's a little running joke we have. Thank you Mayor Haley."

Hey, Ward Up...don't discount the value of being a simpleton who can't speak English and performs poorly in school, but who has the right father. With those credentials, Daley could be president!
