That's true. But Rostenkowski was involved with the Congessional Post Office scandal, among other things. I believe Rosty did some time as well.
Believe me, I'd love to share your sentiment, but I don't think Durbin's leaving the Senate soon.
I live in Illinois, and I agree that Durbin won’t leave the Senate soon. If you know anyone who lives in Illinois, please tell them about Durbin’s conservative opponent, Chad Koppie. Koppie is pro-tax cuts, pro-spending cuts, pro-life, pro-gun rights, and anti-illegal alien. His site is www.koppieforsenate.com.
What about Steve Sauerberg? He has been dumping money into the Chicago TV/Radio market and appears to be conservative. Or more conservative than most Illinois Republicans.
Sauerberg is pro-choice, pro-gun control, and pro-Hillarycare. He should have run in the democrat primary.
Thanks for your clarification. Seems like he’s a typical Illinois Republican.
