Grading Daley: Part One

By The Beachwood Mayoral Affairs Desk
Chicago is the nation's dirtiest city, and its coal plants are killing people; more than one in five city residents live in poverty; the CTA is in a state of meltdown; TIFs are secretly raising your taxes; and the O'Hare expansion is making the mayor's pals rich but will only make your delays worse. Vote Daley!
