  • Amisha Patel (right) wants to help you know your alderman.

I got a call the other day from Amisha Patel, one of the city’s leading progressives, telling me the Indigo Girls were coming to town to throw a fundraiser for the anti-Rahm cause.

Oh, my bad. You know, they say the hearing’s the first thing to go . . .

Haven’t heard me rail about that in while, now have you?

That’s because only three aldermen had the guts to defy the mayor on this boondoggle. Come on down, Aldermen Scott Waguespack, John Arena, and Robert Fioretti!

In theory, I agree with her.
