Illinois is coming back as well. Wouldn’t be surprised to see republicans win the governership as well as the senate seat in 2012.
If they don’t make major gains I think they should let Blago out of his charges because every democrat vote is an endorsement of Blago stype politics.
On Obama when Dick Durbin is your most honest close political ally you are a crook.
I’ve seen happening to this country what happened in Illinois when the democrats took complete control. Even most democrats will say Illinois works best with a Republican Governor and Democrat Mayor in Chicago to balance the power. Ever since Blago took over in 2002 the state has gone to heck in a handbasket.
