Like I said, I don't agree with him on much. He has, however, been an "honorable adversary" most of the time. This certainly puts him above the sleazy tactics used by some in both parties.

Have you read the State of Illinois website? I'm no Judy Barr-Topinka fan but if you read the website entry regarding the governor applauding the house for "forcing" Judy Barr-Topinka to release funds to pay medical providers reimbursements it's a joke. The budget had to be decided on before she even knew how much she had to work with. I'm not defending her but that was a sleaze tactic to make it look like the reason why medical providers were not being paid for services rendered to medicaid patients was all her fault.
