Court Boots Rahm Emanuel From Chicago Mayoral Ballot

An appeals court in Chicago ruled Monday that Rahm Emanuel doesn't meet the residency requirements to run for mayor of Chicago and ordered his name be pulled off the ballot. The three judge panel voted 2-1 against Emanuel.

In a major blow to Emanuel's campaign, Monday's ruling overturned a Cook County Circuit Court ruling that upheld a Chicago Board of Elections decision to let Emanuel run in the February 22nd election.

The court agreed with Emanuel's contention that he met Chicago's voter residency standard but added that wasn't enough to allow his run for mayor.

"...a candidate must meet not only the Election Code's voter residency standard, but also must have actually resided within the municipality for one year prior to the election, a qualification that the candidate unquestionably does not satisfy," the ruling stated.

And the ruling may well keep Emanuel's name off the ballot.

Wow. I didn't see that coming. That's the nigger's #1 boy. Holy shit. Obongo must be in much deeper water than I thought.

It's incredible that this happens the day before the State of the Union.

I think it shows that powerful Dems/libs are abandoning Obongo because they know he can't win in 2012. He's just dead weight.

That whole First Nigger President charm has worn off and they're all just realizing what whites eventually realize - a nigger is always going to be a nigger.

The hebes are playing a different game.

They want to get a white, ultra-conservative, Tea Party/Republican WASP in the White House before they pull the plug on the economy.

This economy will lurch along until Winter 2011 to Spring 2012 - then watch out.

So for now, the hebe strategy is to chip away at Obongo's foundation, acquaintances and allies.
