Laaame. This is the only number that the Illinois GOP (itself a trainwreck) should care about:

In thinking about the 2010 Election for the United States Senate, suppose you had a choice between Republican Mark Kirk and Democrat Alexi Giannoulias. If the election were held today would you vote for Republican Mark Kirk or Democrat Alexi Giannoulias?

41% Kirk

38% Giannoulias

4% Some other candidate

17% Not sure

That’s a nice thought, but I would settle for Mark Kirk asking the IL GOP establishment to leave Illinois.

OK I have a question... why did Fitzgerald from IL quit the US Senate?

[Joe 6-pack]

Since the Star Trek related debacle of a recent Illinois Senate Election, the GOP seems foolish to run a guy named "Kirk".

[wny]

What’s the difference? Abraham Lincoln couldn’t get elected in Illinois today.

[stylin19a]

time to ask Kirk to unseal his divorce papers.

The Marxists have successfully taken over the Democratic Party and they’re on their way to doing the same to the GOP.
