What about voting him out of office? If all the people in Chicago really
didn't support Daley, shouldn't they get out and vote? Or are you all afraid
of gangster politics?

Nearly all the people in Chicago do support Daley. Last election he won by
the largest margin ever.

Exactly. So the people in Chicago deserve all the ire pilots choose to toss
in their direction. But then, Chicago isn't exactly a friend to pilots (by
closing CGX) or passengers (by keeping ORD).

Keep in mind that the ballot does NOT have a box marked _NONE OF THE ABOVE_

After a 4 hour delay last night (which is 3 hours longer than the usual
weekly delay I experience), There should be a box marked _CLOSE_THE_AIRPORT_
;-)

Like Saddamn Hussein getting 100% of the vote in Iraq's 2002 election.
