I lived in Chicago for 20 years before I moved north two years ago. I remember Kirk from his conversations with Don Wade on WLS. Don was always a big conservative so I assumed Kirk was similar.

I'll defer to your analysis--(girls hi-pitched voice) I just feel so violated!

uh, by the vote not you, sir.

I remember the 2000 election when Mark Kirk first ran for Congress. His opponent was Lauren Beth Gash. During the "debate", Kirk and Gash could not think of a single major issue where they disagreed (both were 100% pro-abortion, for "reasonable" gun control, supportive of "gay rights", etc., etc.), so they spent the rest of the "debate" arguing over who lived in the district longer.

I can't believe so many people on this forum were unaware Kirk was a liberal until this vote. Look at his record for the last six years! He's a Linc Chafee Republican!
