Don’t look now, pat, but Madigan tied your laces together.

Either I get a casino, or you’ll be back to Sunday press conferences, where not even bloggers will show up……
- wordslinger - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 8:51 am:
Governor, you can have my answer now, if you like. My final offer is this: nothing. Not even the fee for the casino license, which I would appreciate if you would put up personally.

Rahm tells Pat he is heading back to Chicago to host a viewing party for President Obama’s speech and Pat Quinn thinks “I believe that is the reason he is heading back”

“If you do send me a dead fish, could it be an Asian carp? I could eat it at my next press conference. I’d be a good role model for all those hard-working Illinoisans fighting Asian carp.”

You kneel behind Madigan and I push him over….
- Oswego Willy - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:11 am:
“Do you expect me to let you take my casino from me? Don’t you know me? Don’t you know that that’s an impossibility, that that could never happen… that I’d use all my power to keep something like that from happening? Don’t you know that?”
- phocion - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:14 am:
Prior to the separation procedure, Rahm convinces his conjoined twin Pat that it’s best for Rahm to keep the brain.

Pat, the Cubs still have more support of baseball fans in Chicago. . .

Pat, you’ll do what I say, or I’ll show you the finger on my other hand, farshtaist?
- Amuzing Myself - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:18 am:
Rahm: “These are not the casino concessions you’re looking for.”
Quinn: “These aren’t really the concessions we’re looking for, Rahm.”
Rahm: “You have a fair to go to. Move along.”
Quinn: “Butter cow. Let’s get moving.”

“Pat , I really need a city income tax. How about ramming the thing through the state legislature during the lame duck session? Pat , my dream is to have an income tax on suburbanites. Those who don’t vote , don’t count as the first Mayor Daley said!”

- VanillaMan - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:29 am:
Your street will be closed and under permanent construction until the City can find the funds to finish it. A casino would provide those funds.
It looks like you’ll be walking a quarter mile to your house everyday until then, huh?
- Learning the Ropes - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:31 am:
Rahm: “I know who you are. I know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I’m not giving you any money. But I do have a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my casino go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.”
- Learning the Ropes - Thursday, Sep 6, 12 @ 9:34 am:
Sorry Rich, I know you said to keep the violent imagery down… but I couldn’t resist. Liam Nelson has nothing on Rahm.

“Hey, did you remember to send a gift to Madigan for his birthday?”
“Keep this to yourself … but I just cut off all CDOT funding to the 13th Ward… just to say ‘hey’ to ole Mikey-Boy”
