I don’t know what he’s running for, but he passed stupid like it was sitting still.
Figured JR was running for something:
Jesse Jackson Jr., Debbie Halvorson face off in Illinois race.
“Halvorson, a former congresswoman, effectively declared the congressman a failure and a foot soldier for President Barack Obama. An airport project Jacksons been pushing for years a major source of their rivalry is going nowhere, Halvorson charged.”
“Hes been working on something for 15 years that hasnt even really gotten started, Halvorson told POLITICO. Im a person who can walk and chew gum at the same time. People want to have a choice in this primary. They want somebody strong enough whos gonna give them a real fight, and thats me.
“Jackson, whos been in Congress since he won a 1995 special election, has more reason to worry than ever before. Chicago Democratic insiders agree that having his name dragged into former Gov. Rod Blagojevichs scheme to sell Obamas Senate seat left some serious political scars, although Jackson was never charged with anything. Reports late last year of Jacksons extramarital affair didnt help, even though he and his wife, a Chicago city alderwoman, stayed together.”
