I am heading to Chicago for the Fourth of July holiday. I can't wait. I love Chicago and visiting with family. But within the last few days, Chicago has been in the news once again for something other than than it's wonderful museums, beautiful views of the lake, zoos, the Aquarium, etc, etc, etc. That's right, the trial of former governer Rod Blagojevich brought to light a poorly kept "secret" about Chicago's politics........they are corrupt! And this last episode is part of Chicago politics tradition.
