“And this will be another loss on the way to LOSING THE SENATE! Wake up and see the big picture!!”

Really? You are concerned that if this POS loses we lose the Senate?

Please remind me what Mr. Kirk has done/accomplished that makes you so eager to keep him in the Senate...

By the way...we “own” the Senate and the House right now. How’s that working for you???

If the Democrats take the Senate then good luck in President Trump ever getting a Supreme Court justice confirmed.

I think it is because politics is so easy to accomplish and the rewards are so great. Anybody can do politics. Name me another job whee you can lie, cheat, steal, take advantage of people, make decision for other peoples lives and livelihood, screw it up, harm people, say you're sorry, (which you probably aren't), be accepted back into the job or one provided by a party,and get rich doing it? And the tell tale factor is that a huge amount of politicians are lawyers. That help? red

****This “leader” is a total loser. Why is it that politics attracts such debris?****

They are almost all bought and paid for by globalist elites that want total control of the world.

Like the Republicans would be any different.

Cruz alone would (likely) block ANYTHING Trump attempts...Bank on it.

I live in Illinois, so I know that Sen. Kirk is more liberal than many Democrats. During most of the time that he’s been in Congress (including the Senate and House), his ratings from Planned Parenthood have usually been 100%, and his ratings from Gun Owners of America have usually been 0%. He wants to give amnesty to illegal aliens.

I met Kirk’s Constitution Party opponent, Chad Koppie. Chad is pro-life, pro-gun rights, anti-illegal alien, pro-fairtax, and pro-spending cuts. If you know any Illinois conservatives, please ask them to help Chad’s campaign by volunteering and/or donating. His site is www.chadkoppie.com. When he gives speeches, he says that the liberal vote will split, among Kirk, Duckworth, and Summers (of the Green Party), helping Chad win with 20%.

  1. Obama was reduced to governing by executive order rather than passing any laws. His executive orders would be overturned by President Trump.
  2. Obama's latest Supreme Court nominee was not considered.
  3. Gun Control bills did not pass the House and the Senate, etc.

And there would have been amnesty for all illegal immigrants had the Democrats still held the Senate and House; why they did not do that first before ACA is unclear.
