Found this nugget in a Rich Miller column about the political machinations behind the lagging capital bill and gubernatorial politics:
“Daley has turned thumbs down on the capital package because: 1) The price the city would have to pay for a casino license was way higher than what Daley agreed to; and 2) The governor inserted language giving himself control of all Chicago school construction projects against Daley’s wishes.”
A) So he can name all the schools after himself? Or . . .
B) So he can throw some contracts to Chris Kelly while he awaits trial?
