Kirk fans and Oberdouche fans who still think he ran in 2006 to hand the nomination to Topinka.
Brady should have hit Quinn a harder and better countered that "extremist" nonsense but it's his "fault" as much as it would your fault if were you mugged at gunpoint by a gang of thugs.
Mark Kirk got to vote on his very first bill today! He proudly voted YES on S. 510, Senator Dick Durbin’s so-called “Food Safety Modernization Act”, a massive piece of federal red-tape. It passed by 57 votes. Lisa Murkowski, Scott Brown, Snowe, Collins, Voinovich, Thune, and Kirk are among the few GOP “yes” votes.
The Sun-Times noted: ‘In a bi-partisan move, Chicago mayoral hopeful Rep. Danny Davis (D-Ill.), at the Kirk reception, invited the new junior senator to his West Side Chicago district for a town hall meeting. “Congratulaitons on a great victory. I know you are going to be good for the people of Illinois,” Davis told Kirk.’

Congrats to all the freepers who demanded Mark Kirk get “seated immediately”, you got your wish.
