Does anyone have that speech online of Daley at an emergency press conference after the Loop’s ComEd substation blew some years ago? There were these maroon curtains behind him, and he eventually grew so angry that his face matched their color. It was extremely monumental.

I miss the city, but I do not miss the city’s politicos.

nickd: I’d love to see a video of that as well. That’s the one Mare Daley moment I’ll always remember the most.
Say what you will, but he gets things done, and I’ve really missed that about Chicago since I moved to Seattle. Nickels is such a wanna-be.
