I love this great, satirical campaign ad from Kat Abughazaleh.  It’s extremely clever, while getting across her agenda.  As it happens, I’ve made a couple of small donations to her campaign previously, and only came across the ad because someone else loved it and posted it on Twitter.  She’s running for the IL-9 district, which is currently represented by the wonderful Jan Schakowsky who is retiring – and whose district my folks were in.



Interestingly, I actually have had dinner with who I just found out is her Democratic opponent in the race -- and even wrote about him here a while back.  Daniel Biss, who has served in the Illinois statehouse and currently is the mayor of Evanston, where the beloved Northwestern is.  He's the grandson of a great "grande dame" I adored, who lived on the same floor as my folks in their independent living residence -- and lived until about 105, Adeline Cohen.


 


So, I like both candidates.  But I love this ad.
