| Moore (left) has become one of the mayor's boys. |
Ald. Joe Moore was once considered to be a "progressive" who stood up once in a while, to the Daley machine and owed his allegiance to the people in his community. But now, Moore has become little more than a toady for the mayor, especially when it comes to closing schools and bashing the teachers union. He was one of the founders of the so-called Paul Douglass Alliance in the City Council, a rump group set up to counter the Progressive Caucus which has been critical of Rahm. Moore has even joined Rahm in his effort to weaken the investigative powers of the city's Inspector General.
Maybe now we know why. He didn't want to get thrown under the bus by party bosses.
