The [Thursday] Papers
Reminder: For those so inclined, the memorial for our beloved Joe Mielnik is still on for today at Nick's Beer Garden in Wicker Park, starting at 5 p.m. and going until who knows. (The official end time is 8 p.m., but let's just say that is awfully fungible with this crowd - meaning 8 a.m. is just as likely.) Pizza and take-home goodies such as pins and t-shirts will be provided.

Meanwhile, on the campaign trail . . .

Paul Vallas Connects Daley's Dots
"Bill Daley has made a career out of monetizing his relationships, often at the direct expense of everyday Chicagoans," Vallas says. He's not wrong.
From the Vallas campaign: Bill Daley's greatest hits, including the infamous parking meter deal, his stints with JP Morgan and SBC, and all the nepotism, greed and insider-dealing of The Chicago Way you can handle.

Ozzie Backs Bill
Reminder: Tom Ricketts also endorsed Daley - and gave him $25,000.
Honored to have @OzzieGuillen endorse me as Chicago's next mayor. Our city has challenges that we need to face -- crime, rising property taxes & providing students with a great education. Thank you for your belief in my ability to tackle these issues. https://t.co/oqeHVZ92YS

McCarthyism
Bear in mind, with McCarthy and Enyia, I wasn't interacting with their campaigns. I was retweeting with my own comments to my own followers. Think about that.

Amara Alert
"The spokeswoman who replaced Kucera on the campaign also has since departed Enyia's camp, and a third staffer is now handling her media relations." https://t.co/rhz9VCmWPs

Dinty Moore
After he was criticized for using a local photographer's photo in a mailer without permission, Chicago Alderman Joe Moore has now used a photo of LAPD officers posing w a child in a mailer touting his community policing efforts. He just blurred the lettering on the badges. pic.twitter.com/FMJNOaogzN

Subtweet to some of what I'm finding in my feed today, including by local journalists: 1950 called, they want their gender relations back. #ValentinesDay
