If he is a champion cat-herder instead of a liberal-basher, this could be an improvement, since Democrats are basically cats.

At least he's not obsessed with Israel and fascism, like Rahm.

He's running for Mayor of Chicago. It's been in the news for a week or two now.

Yeah, I looked it up after reading the article, before posting.

You need to understand that this forum is actually my prime source for US politics news. Tongue

Wikipedia describes him as a "confirmed bachelor" with a love of cats, which is a hilariously unsubtle way of implying something.

What is this? The 1940's?

I know, it's quite silly. Seems like a nice guy, anyway, which makes for a change from Rahm.

Ah, so he is rumoured what the British press would describe as 'erudite'. They used to like 'flamboyant' and 'dapper', but those are obviously absurd in certain cases (cf. the member for Birkenhead who is permanently attached to the word 'erudite' but is also about as flamboyant as wallpaper paste) and so are no longer used much.

It's a pretty unpleasant practice, when you think about it. If unintentionally hilarious.

I wonder if I can find that pic of myself with OJ (I gave the guy the name "OJ" because he was quite physical, and orange and white like an Orange Julies, so I thought the double entendre clever, before the OJ of my species did stuff that caused him to loose all his lucrative TV ad contracts, among other things), wrapped around my neck, with his eyes closed, in feline bliss.

So he's a fanook, big deal. He's bound to do a better job than the slime ball who preceded him.

Him being persistently single doesn't necessarily mean he's gay.

I am a confirmed bachelor with a love of cats. And I'm certainly not gay.

I didn't think about it, but this'll provide for a whole huge use of lolcats.
