The Republican Party in Illinois is non-existent. Unless you can afford to monetarily back your own campaign, you can't run. It really is very sad, because unless you are a multimillionaire, no one in Illinois will ever know you exist. How can anyone possibly have a successful campaign against Durbin who is 70% funded by trial lawyers?
Beat Durbin?? There is one hat coUld do it...a
multi-milliomnir, that is female. and black...name
is OPRAH.. jk
