Obama ad shows Democrats' hypocrisy

Super Chicago ward healer Barack Obama, who has a day job as president of the United States and purportedly the leader of the free world, has deemed it necessary to endorse and cut commercials for the election of a state senator. A state senate seat. Let that one sink in a bit.

The president thought it important enough that state senator Ken Dunkin, a Democrat, who practiced what the president has consistently preached, but not he himself has followed, the importance of bi-partisanship and reaching across the aisle to solve problems, be punished for working with Gov. Rauner, bucking Speaker Michael Madigan.

Chicago Democrats, especially African-American voters, who wonder why their unflinching support of Democrats gets them nothing don't have to look any further than President Obama inserting himself into petty local politics to punish a someone who dare go against the establishment.

An establishment that has bankrupted the state.
