Crossing-over talk

Get this: Bobbie Steele is talking Petraica.

Steele refused to predict that Todd Stroger would be slated. But she said a lot of Democrats are upset at the prospect that he will be the candidate and those people are prepared to vote for Republican Tony Peraica, a county commissioner from Riverside.

"A lot of people are saying that they're going to cross over," Steele said.

Steele also refused to say whether she would support Todd Stroger in November if he were slated. "I will support ... the candidate that I feel is best. And I'm not saying who it is," Steele said.

[Rep. Danny] Davis said today that he would support Todd Stroger if the younger Stroger wins the party's support for the November election.

Meanwhile,

Ald. Todd Stroger (8th), John Stroger’s son, is expected to be named the nominee by Democratic committeemen Tuesday. However, U.S. Rep. Danny Davis also is pushing for the nomination.

Danny’s going for broke?
