I think all she meant was "Welcome to the Club" (or "I see you're still in the Club.") As KSigRC has said, what Chicagoans/Illinoisians (is that right?) are now experiencing is pretty much what Detroiters have been experiencing and, speaking more broadly than just corrupt politics, what GCers from every part of the country have experienced at one time or another. (Just for an example of what we Southerners get, check out the first picture in this post.)

Every part of the country gets a bad rap from time to time. Sometimes it's deserved, but often it's not. No need to take it personally. Somethings really aren't worth rallying against.
