Slate's Jacob Weisberg Says Chicago Style Politics Doesn't Exist

Loyal , Democrat party hack Jacob Weisberg says Chicago style politics doesn't exist:
By the mid-1980s, the independents had mostly finished off the Daley machine—thanks mainly to the Shakman decree, still very much in force, which prevents any political consideration in hiring, firing, and promotion, with the exception of a thin layer of policy positions.
Who could forget the major patronage operation the Daley Regime was running for years? Or the infamous Hired Truck scandal? In 2012, all 50 Aldermen are members of the Democrat party thanks to the Daley Machine that wiped out independent thought. Lastly, Jacob Weisberg didn't know that Rod was "made" by his father in law , Machine Boss Dick Mell? Is Jacob Weisberg just plain dumb or dishonest? As a tribute to this man's amazing legacy, the Obama campaign is running their national campaign at the North end of this man's old ward!
