Politics & Fashion - One day you're in, the next you are out.

The windy city has had a sordid history in politics with the notorious Chicago Machine.

News coming out today (click here) points to B. Hussein Obama's right-hand man as a key "influencer" in the appointment of B.O.'s open Senate seat. Of course, he will continue to deny any involvement until the taped conversation is made public - or he forced to turn over even more valuable evidence in exchange for the protection of his reputation.

"Change," he said. "Yes we can," they shouted in reponse.

Corrupt politicians...in Chicago. Change?

"Change," he said. "Yes we can," they shouted in response.

The auctioning of a Senate seat for $1,000,000. Change?

"Change," he said. "Yes we can," they shouted in response.

Now they will be leveraging all assets to keep B.O. from stinking.

No wonder President Bush looks disappointed in recent press pictures. He can smell the stink and can't do anything about it.

As a country, B. Hussein Obama was given the big dollars to win the election. Now he's giving the people the change he was offering.

Change...is not always good.

Where are the Hollywood elite defending B.O.'s "honor" or that of his right-hand man in this trying moment of history.

Where are the leftist media who so strongly vouched for a man with a mere 143 days of political experience today?

Wouldn't this be a great time to defend the political circle B. Hussein Obama has surrounded himself with?

They are, not surprisingly, nowhere to be seen. Like an 1800's ghost town with dust blowing in a hot breeze without a tumbleweed left to disturb the deafening silence, the rabid B.O. supporters seem eerily quiet tonight.

This is what it means to be President. Every decision, past and present, will haunt you, follow you. Someone will always want to take you down. Someone will have the skeleton key to the closet and they will open that door when pushed just so far. Someone will always want their big payday to arrive and they will sell that dirty little secret.

They will shake your hand, give you a campaign donation and then turn on you. They will turn on you for your abandonment of what they thought were a new set of ideals they could get behind. Or, they may turn for even that brief moment of power or glory to be 'the source.' The source that can take down would previously have seemed to be an untouchable, unshakable reputation. Down, down it goes.

With this story breaking, it could be the beginining of a glimmer of hope in a city wrought with one of the worst reputations in the political arena. Has Chicago found a David willing to step onto the field and do battle with the city's Philistine giants or a Wyatt Earp willing to fight the 'cowboys' of the infamous Chicago Machine?

The fight is generally not an easy one. But, when good takes a stand against evil - good wins.
