Madigan on Mob, G-man

Not your usual G-man, not your usual politician, banker Alexi Giannoulious, Democrat candidate for State Treasurer, has still not been endorsed by state party chairman and Illinois house speaker Mike Madigan. Carol Marin's column in the Sun Times:

Lobbing another political hand grenade, the state Democratic Party chairman and Illinois House speaker said Tuesday he is withholding his support for Democratic treasurer nominee Alexi Giannoulias until he answers "those allegations of connections to the mob."

"I want some answers," Madigan said. "The allegations are there."

The powerful Southwest Side Democrat made the remarks at his annual fund-raiser when I asked him why Giannoulias' photo was still not on the party's Web site.
