Political Hit Job in the Windy City: New book by 1996 by David Feddoso
Chicago, 1996. State Senator Alice Palmer (D-Ill.) never saw it coming...
The popular activist, running for re-election (she'd won the previous election with a landslide 82% of the vote), was a sure thing keep her seat.
But on the day after New Year's 1996, a small army of lawyers filed into the hearing room of the Chicago Board of Elections. In a blink, Alice Palmer's name had been struck from the ballot.
So, too, were the names of three other candidates on the Democratic primary ballot — all eliminated on the basis of minor "violations," most of them as picayune as not crossing a "t" or failure to dot an "i."
When the dust settled only a single name remained on the ballot: Barack Hussein Obama. He "swept" to victory... unopposed.
You can't say we weren't warned!
Veteran political journalist David Freddoso has done a very brave, but dangerous thing. As the Alice Palmer affair reveals, bad things happen to people who dare stand in the way of Barack Obama and his Chicago cronies. Indeed, since his election as president, Obama has shown no reluctance to unleash the IRS against his adversaries.
Unlike Ms. Palmer, who never saw it coming, David Freddoso knows full well what "misfortunes" might befall him. But that didn't stop him from writing the truth, namely — that Barack Obama has brought Chicago-style corruption and strong-arm tactics to Washington in order to ram though his massive, union-benefiting welfare-state agenda.
