Poll Ping!

When the U.S. Senate campaign got into swing this year, some pundits wondered whether voters would be confused by a matchup that featured Durbin and Durkin. The poll shows that they are not.

Unfortunately, our liberals aren't as stupid as Florida's liberals.

I think Birkett has a good chance of beating Madigan, he's campaining hard - unlike Jim Ryan, who is so far the Invisible Candidate. Has the Republican Party in Illinois gotten so fat, stupid and lazy that they don't think they need to campaign anymore?

DuPage County State's Attorney Joe Birkett, a Republican, holds a slim lead over Democratic state Sen. Lisa Madigan in the race for Illinois attorney general, a new Copley News Service poll shows.

Republican Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka held a 48 percent to 29 percent lead over Rep. Tom Dart, D-Chicago.

At least there will be some Republicans still in office after the Blagojevich win. This year could have been a lot worse.
