Yay! Little Dick giving it up! I guess he isn’t ready to kiss Sandy Cortez’s and MS-13’s @$$es.

Despite his “evolution” from a pro-life and pro-gun moderate into a flaming liberal, Durbin has been subjected to many attacks from leftists and progressives for not being Bernie Sanders.

Good, he always was a Dick.

Too bad the Republicans have literally zero viable candidates, not (seeing as how this is Illinois) that it would matter if they did.
The best possible outcome is that some supposedly marginal House seat opens up because the Democrat incumbent decides to take a shot at the Senate.
Due to the current Illinois Democrat gerrymander of U.S. House districts — easily the most ludicrous gerrymander in the entire country, and not a peep from the GOP — there aren’t many ACTUALLY marginal House seats, though some give the illusion of being that way under certain conditions (like a ridiculously unlikely “red wave”).

Yes, he was a worthless Dick, but he’ll be replaced by somebody at least as worthless, once the Central Committee decides on who’s next.

Durbin’s replacement probably won’t be much better.

Dick Durbin’s “evolution” was pragmatic, until it wasn’t any more.
The party left him because he could no longer nimbly jump through the hoops. Old dogs get arthritis, and it is painful for them to even move about.

My only surprise it that he didn’t die in office. But there’s still time...

The state of Chicago will deliver another shining winner, I am sure.
I feel bad that Illinois has no voice against Chicago.
