Headline: Voters of Broke City Set to Re-Elect Incumbent

Here is one of those unironic headlines that encapsulates American government and politics.

"Emanuel Leads Garcia in Polls as Chicago Veers Toward Insolvency"

Of course.  Translation:  'We're broke, so let's re-elect the incumbent!'  Hey, worked for the federal government, look how much awesomer life is under Obama 2.0!
