That would be a gamble downstate though. If they decide to go gamble and go with a woman, Bean would be a much safer bet. The "undecided and indifferent on the issues" type of folk can't quite figure out who and what she is by just looking at the picture.

Jesse Jr. is related to his father. That right there is 2 strikes against him.

That would be my pick - which means she won't be selected.

Ha! Fat chance. Jan Schakowsky's husband is a convicted thief, and jail bird. He did jail time for writing "rubber" checks.

Two out of three of those politicians suck, big time.
Hands off the Mini Cooper!

Default Jesse Jackson Jr. Working With the Feds Since 2003 Against Blago!

It sounds like our "Senate Candidate Number 5" Jesse Jackson Jr. has been working with the Feds since 2003 to bust up Blago's bribe machine. ABC 7 reported tonight that Blago tried to get campaign donations in 2003 in return for appointing Sandi Jackson (Jesse Jr.'s wife) a lottery commissioner, and the Jacksons turned him in. Jesse Jackson Jr. may not only be innocent in this whole thing, but he may actually have played a large part in busting Blago. Very interesting!
