He'll get his ass kicked, like in Maryland, but Keyes will run rings around Obama in debates.
I wish Keyes would run in a safe GOP state.
Ditto that.
I would not underestimate Obama's debating skills, but it WILL be an interesting debate/s.
One of the reasons why he lost here in Maryland was because it was exposed that he took something like a $96,000 annual salary from his campaign contributions. Will he do the same in Illinois? Or has he learned his lesson?
If I make a contribution to a candidate, I don't expect him to take the money to pay his electric bill.

Illinois is the ideal place for Keyes to run. There are too many people there who blindly vote Democrat. Keyes is a magnificent debater, knows what he is talking about, has high moral standards that he does not back down from, has a magnificent record in public service and........he's black!
Obama seems to be a nice kid, but he is not dry behind the ears. Keyes will (very nicely) eat him alive. Whether Illinois voters will be honest in choosing the best man....remains to be seen.

Yeah, but then he might actually win! Eek!
Yep,he'll lose and lose badly.Obama is a lock.
Why not run in Virginia or something??

He need to run against Baucus in Montana. I think he could beat him.
