He knows that he already won.....
That is so wrong Barack Hussein Obama

I guess if you're the messiah you can predict the future!!!

Daley puts Obama rally tab at $2 million
Posted by Dan Mihalopoulos at 12:22 p.m.
Mayor Richard Daley put the tab at $2 million today for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's Grant Park rally on election night.
Obama's campaign is footing the bill.
Noting the city's budget shortfall and planned layoffs of city workers, Daley said, "In this financial crisis, the city of Chicago could not afford $2 million on this."
Daley said he would have preferred that the event were held indoors at the United Center, but he yielded to the Obama campaign's wishes.
"Could you see me saying no to Sen. Obama?" Daley told reporters today. "Give me a break. I'm not that dumb."
Daley said he plans to attend the event.
City emergency officials will outline details at a news conference today.
"Yeah, it's costly but they raised quite a bit of money in the campaign," Daley said.
The Obama rally reaction came as Daley attended an event where Baxter International Inc. promised to donate $5 million for science programs at Chicago Public Schools.
Lindblom Math and Science Academy will get $2 million for a biotechnology center. Another $2 million is earmarked for increasing teacher training in biology, chemistry and physics, with the remaining $1 million helping to launch two new schools under Daley's Renaissance 2010 initiative. Private donations to the program have reached $48 million, officials said.
