I hope that the U.S. Senate primary will be between Kirk and Shimkus and that Shimkus will win. I live in Kirk’s district, and I want him to leave Congress. If he doesn’t run for re-election, who should run for his seat? The district has few conservative elected officials. If Shimkus doesn’t run for re-election, he could be replaced by St. Sen. Bomke.
I’m not sure who is the best to run for Kirk’s seat. Perhaps if not an elected official, somebody from the private sector, and someone definitely not affiliated with the Combine.
Mustache power!
