Devoted to Madigan

Did anyone really believe Susana Mendoza wanted to stop legislators' paychecks? She's been a good soldier for Mike Madigan since she entered politics. Almost any state Democrat who gets in front of the media has to be viewed with suspicion. No one goes against Madigan without a political death wish or most likely, a statement made up by the speaker's office, and will disappear in seconds.

The past few weeks have been instructive on a national level as to how ordinary citizens rose up in protest to the current president's agenda. Now, if we can only get the people of Illinois to rise up to the rulers of Madiganistan.
