This city's winning mayoral candidate in 1927 courted the Irish vote by boasting that, if given the chance, he'd punch King George V in the face. One mayor in this city was opposed by the Vrdolyak 29 [vruh-DOH-lee-ack "29"] in the Council Wars after 81% of this city's whites and 3% of its blacks voted for Bernard Epton, who would have been its first Republican mayor since 1931. Its final Republican mayor, who defeated William Dever in 1927 and controlled a faction opposed by the candidates supported by U.S. senator Charles Deneen in the violent "Pineapple Primary" of 1928, was the massively corrupt "Big Bill" Thompson. Another mayor of this city, whose tenure was chronicled in local columnist Mike Royko's book Boss, called Connecticut senator Abe Ribicoff a "Jew son of a bitch" for denouncing the "Gestapo tactics" used during the 1968 Democratic National Convention. For 10 points, name this city once led by mayor Richard J. Daley.
