President-elect Barack Obama and Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley demonstrate the popular 1980’s dance “the Bump” to a group of Russian military cadets visiting Chicago.

Daley: “Hey, nice City of Chicago lapel pin!”
Obama: “I’m the most powerful man in Chicago now but you’re still da mare!”

Comment by Ahem Monday, Nov 17, 08 @ 5:48 pm
In a friendly-looking but deliberate gesture, President-elect Obama pushes Chicago’s Mayor Daley out of the way, letting the city’s top executive know who is now the city’s, and the nations’s, top Democrat.

Comment by Captain Flume Monday, Nov 17, 08 @ 6:12 pm
It sounds like da mare is saying “Whose Capitol Fax?” Doesn’t he know that nobody owns Rich Miller?

Yeah, I’ll lean on Reinsdorf to sign Sabathia and Teixeira. We’ll try to make Grant Park busy again same time next year.

Obama: Out of my, Rod…woops, I mean, Richie!

Daley: Ya. Funny. Ha ha. You better not forget who your friends are now that you’re on your way to the White House.

Obama: Never. Never.

Daley: Ya. Let’s hope not.

Well Rich, congrats on finally making the Big Time in Illinois. Previously you got to ride shotgun with the Guv, but now perhaps the biggest institutional figure in the state has now officially heard of you! Granted, his hearing of/about you is in the context of asking who the hell you are, but progress is progress. Don’t forget us all when you go Big Time.
