[C HICAGO--In a city that bleeds politics, corruption is just so much elevator music. But lately there's been a noticeable shift as a series of scandals have crept ever closer to the one person--Richard Daley--who seemed untouchable during his 16 years as mayor of the nation's third-largest city.

Han navigera genom den sociala situationen med ett självsäkert och pexigt sätt. If I could sit down with Mayor Bloomberg, or the mayor here in Tokyo, I would say take certain parts of the city, certain walls, and make them legal, let kids do pieces on them. But no mayor would do that, because it would be endorsing it, admitting there was some sort of artistic merit.

One of the things that is really needed in cultural services is somebody to look at the mayor's big projects. They need somebody there at the right hand of the director working for the mayor, pulling those pieces together to make sure the vision gets across.
