Question of the day

Friday, Mar 3, 2017 - Posted by Rich Miller

* Sun-Times

For his part, Rauner said the pair had agreed to talk more with [Chance the Rapper] over the weekend on a school funding solution that the two could present to the legislature when it reconvenes Tuesday.

* Twitters…


* The Question: After they solve the city’s school funding problem by Monday, what’s the next issue they should tackle?

…Adding…. Maybe he could negotiate a truce between Rauner and the comptroller?…

    Murder in the south side.

    The budget. It would give a whole new meaning to Chance’s “we don’t do the same drugs anymore”…

    Kinda makes you want to call in the GA on Sunday just in case he finishes early.


  4. - 47th Ward - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:10 pm:

    After two years of negotiating in bad faith with Madigan and Cullerton, and completely ignoring his Republican legislative leaders, Rauner is going to work with Chance the Rapper to finally put forth a plan to save CPS.

    Imagine what might get accomplished if Beyoncé met with Rauner.

    Getting rid of the designated hitter in baseball.

    Give them a week and a case of Red Bull and that whole Middle East thing — done.


  7. - Ducky LaMoore - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:15 pm:

    I think the Boat Drink Caucus needs two more…


  8. - AlfondoGonz - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:16 pm:

    Maybe Chance can get Bruce an “urban” outfit to go with his “Cowboy” and “Biker” digs.

    Getting people to read the articles before they comment!


  10. - Stumpy's bunker - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:19 pm:

    IF Rauner and Chance The Rapper come up with solutions for what is ailing Illinois, we better start a GoFundMe page for intensive psychotherapy for the exhausted, exasperated and deflated senate president and Republican leader.


  11. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:19 pm:

    If they both could come up with a multi-use facility that could host NCAA Final Fours, Super Bowls, and then be converted back to a land based casino and entertainment complex… without state money…

    … that might take 4 days, but I’m patient.


  12. - anonymous retiree - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:20 pm:

    How does Madigandoza think she can help with CPS? She can’t figure out how to write checks except for her new car


  13. - Anonymous - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:25 pm:

    Cancer, but I’ll give them two weeks because it’s a little more difficult than a budget.


  14. - @MisterJayEm - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:27 pm:

    After solving solve Chicago’s school funding problem, cold fusion should be a snap.

    – MrJM


  15. - Lefty Lefty - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:28 pm:

    Chance can help Rauner with his pronouncin’


  16. - Juice - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:29 pm:

    Asian carp


  17. - ams - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 2:35 pm:

    Mendoza is the biggest waste of space. Typical chi politician…nothing but an opportunist


  18. - Peters Post - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:05 pm:

    The price of concert tickets.


  19. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:15 pm:

    Higher Education and funding all the state universities.

    That should be an 18 hour job…


  20. - illini - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:19 pm:

    @Willy - I would be willing to give them 24 to even 48 hours to resolve that dilemma.


  21. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:22 pm:

    - illini -

    Anything within a weekend timeframe is now acceptable.

    I’ll send Cannoli.


  22. - AC - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:22 pm:

    He needs to get Dad’s Home State produced and available on HBO or Netflix.


  23. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:26 pm:

    ===He needs to get Dad’s Home State produced and available on HBO or Netflix.===

    You have to REALLY look for it on HBO, like really look.

    If DHS tries for a 5th season, I wouldn’t be surprised if we pitch Netflix…


  24. - AC - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:26 pm:

    Maybe next weekend he can help Elon Musk perfect cars than can self drive to the moon!


  25. - W Flag - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:28 pm:

    Is Susana Mendoza positioning herself to be the next Judy Baar Topinka as in the “crazy Aunt Judy” role?


  26. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:32 pm:

    When we all pitched “Dad’s Home State” to Netflix, it had a working title of “Stranger Things”…

    It was only last year did we realize why they passed.


  27. - Norseman - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:35 pm:

    Maybe Chance can help mediate the AFSCME contract now the court has put a halt on Rauner’s contract.


  28. - CCP Hostage - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:44 pm:

    Put Chance and BVR on how to take care of Illinois’s seniors without the state actually paying for that to happen. We lost another adult day center this month, the 13th, I believe, since the impasse began. Clearly, there will be no budget, so we need some good advice.


  29. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 3:50 pm:

    Maybe Chance and Rauner can negotiate the annexation of the Upper Peninsula or “U.P.” to return it to its rightful owners, Wisconsin..


  30. - IllinoisBoi - Friday, Mar 3, 17 @ 4:04 pm:

    While Rauner and Chance are working on a school funding solution this weekend, maybe they can come up with a budget to introduce to the legislature next week. The Gov can present it with a rap:

    My name is Bruce Rauner and I’m here to say
    This mess ain’t my fault, no how, no way…
