How Democrats have changed. As his biographers recall, Chicago's lakefront liberals both loathed him and laughed at him. A podgy, jowly man with a porcine face, he personified the big-city boss. His thick ethnic speech was sprinkled with "dis's" and "dat's". He referred to a bicycle made for two as a "tantrum bike", talked of "walking pedestrians", told reporters that he resented their "insinuendos" and urged audiences to "reach higher and higher platitudes". In a moment of self-pity, he said: "They have vilified me, they have crucified me, yes, they have even criticised me."
