The people of Illinois keep electing liberals despite their horrible economy, high crime rates and corrupt government.

They deserve this.

Meanwhile, Republican gains in other states will more than offset anything the liberals can carve out of Illinois.

Providing Republicans deliver on smaller government and reduced deficits, we will see the GOP make more gains in 2012, just from redistricting.

I must say, the people of Illinois are NOT electing these screwballs, but the voters of Chicago sure are. The entire state of Illinois is red, minus Chicago.

I wonder how long it’s going to take for the rest of the state to figure out how to secede. My sweetie lives on the north side, teaches on the southside, so I’ve been there many times.

The amount of corruption, self-dealing, and outright crime in gov’t is something to behold, especially if you come from a “good gov’t” kind of state.

It’s absolutely stunning. And the people in Chicago have given up.

Exactly. There is no saving Illinois. It will have to implode.

I dispute that I and the rest of decent people in this State that are outvoted (often fraudulently like this past Governor election) “deserve this”.
