What does the future hold

As was reported by the media (including
Sun-Times and ABC 7 News), Alderman Arenda Troutman (20th Ward) was arrested yesterday morning for "allegedly" accepting bribes. According to news stories, she's had quite a few embarrassments over the years, but Daley stuck behind her, even in spite of an arrest for shoplifting back in 1978. Case dropped, but whatever. Could it be that it was a sign of things to come? "Accepting bribes" seems to somehow fall in-line with a graduation of sorts from petty theft.

And speaking of Daley...

Is there any chance that the feds (or hopefully already have been) eyeing him and his other flunkies in the city council? If only the feds could get someone with power to flip on Daley...
