    Come on Carlos, get out that cheesehead area. You are needed much more around this town anyway. Fight on!

    Carlos,
    We love you. Many, many prayers are flowing your way. I grew up in Milwaukee, it is a tough city, but you're one hell of tough guy - peace and love my brother. (your seat at the table is there when come home)

    Carlos, I've always appreciated your thoughtful reporting on WBEZ and spot-on comments on Chicago Tonight -- you think deep and on your feet at the same time, an enviable gift.

    And ever the reporter, you got all these media luminaries and political honchos to reveal themselves by name on Cap Fax! Who knew so many of them followed the blog so closely? Rich owes you for a great string of comments and so do all of us for a terrific body of work. Best wishes for a strong recovery.

    I was debating between sending a card and orchestrating a Milwaukee gang war. Looks like I made the right choice. Keep it up, Carlos and Randi!!!

    Rich, it is very much appreciated that you made it possible for so many of Carlos' fans to "get in to see him" so soon after his surgery. I know many of us would have had no idea how to get updates, or how to contact him with well wishes had you not opened up the special blog threads on Capitol Fax. Thanks Rich, and keep surprising everybody there at the hospital Carlos!

    good steps on the recovery road, Carlos! look out Milwaukee....smart reporters in town who battle
    cancer but will surely spot a story if anything is
    amiss in your city! what a cute picture of you two!

    Carlos, get well soon big guy! I'm totally sending you the best vibes I can muster up for you and just know that I wish you a very very verrrrrrry speedy and FULL recovery!

    class move to do this and even classier to have the pols wish him well. I hope his bosses noted it.

    Carlos, glad to see you on the other side of the scalpel. Get plenty of rest and here's to a full and timely recovery.

    Get well soon Carlos.

    The enthusiasm you have for politics has always been evident in your television appearances and it makes you one of the better pundits to watch. Hope to see you back on tv soon!

    Rich,

    Thanks for facilitating this lifeline to our friend Carlos.

    Carlito, hang in there buddy. And try to remember not to ask the docs and nurses all those nasty probing questions you like so much. They're not your favorite alderman and they simply have your life in their hands.

    Ever since you told me about what was to happen yesterday, I've been trying to send good vibes your way. You're a great journalist and really cool guy. We need you back here on the job soon! My thoughts and prayers are with you buddy. Get well soon.

    Dave

    Carlos:

    Today should have been a hot county news day that instead was bland and boring without even the mere *possibility* of one of your Oscar-worthy county official impersonations (I won't say which is my favorite). Come on, bring it back -- we need you!
