It's too bad because she is an Illinois politician that I could vote for.

Preckwinkle didn’t sling mud at Emanuel. She didn’t orate with phony outrage about his work as mayor. Instead she used those 196 words of prose to talk about the reality of governing Cook County. About what she intends to accomplish after her unopposed run for re-election in November. She talked about reforming the county criminal justice system, transforming the health care system, stabilizing the pension system. About cutting budgets and containing taxes and creating new jobs.
Yes, all of these were fleeting mentions of what Preckwinkle called “unfinished business that I intend to address wholeheartedly.”
