Do you have an opinion on the Illinois 16th? I know Manzullo usually blows his opponents out (IIRC, last time was 65-35) but for some reason I’m still a bit worried.
Naah, I don’t think that will be a real problem. Manzullo has four times the money of his opponent. This seat isn’t really being targeted by the Dems. The big problem is that we’re probably going to lose the 11th (Weller’s seat) and the badly tainted RINO Oberweis’s refusal to step aside will likely see the Dems retain that heavily GOP seat, too. Kirk may also be imperiled in the 10th, too, depending upon what kind of coattails Obama has in IL (assuming he has any at all — but even Dole had them in KS in 1996).
Manzullo is my “adopted” congressman since I live in the 4th district (Luis Gutierrez).
