As the world turns ...


Back in 1968, at the Chicago Convention, the Democratic Party reached its nadir.

Chicago police set about anti-war demonstrators in Grant Park, overseen by the City's Mayor, Richard J. Daley.

Tonight, also in Grant Park, there will be a party to welcome -- it is devoutly to be hoped -- the President-elect, Barrack Obama. Also in close attendance will be the current Mayor of Chicago, Richard M. Daley, eldest son and political heir of Richard J., Obama's supporter and adviser.
