DescriptionAdd this word to Chicago's political lexicon: "Feigenholtzed." It's a word describing a stupid, simplistic, stereotypical campaign which culminates in an embarrassing and resounding defeat.

Add this word to the North Shore's political lexicon: "Footliked." It describes a flawed, clueless campaign, predicated on delusional presumptions and resulting in a crushing loss.

And add this prediction to this column's unending procession: In the Feb. 2 Democratic primary in Illinois' north suburban 10th U.S. House District, Julie Hamos is poised to be both "Feigenholtzed" and "Footliked." For an experienced politician and a 12-year state representative, Hamos' flawed campaign and prospective defeat is both incomprehensible and inexcusable.
