If Illinois wants to remain competitive it's got to up it's corruption game. Not declaring money received from a foreign government is old man stuff. Gaetz used campaign funds to move an under aged girl across state lines for sex. If we're to remain competitive against Florida we need to start electing random guys from Xbox Live.

Blagojevich is suing for the right to run for public office in Illinois again. He says he's representing himself but he was disbarred so I don't know how that is going to work. I don't understand how this guy can go anywhere without getting pelted with rotten vegetables.

I cannot wait for Blago to start a tour in Southern Illinois to grift money. I honestly cannot predict whether he will make a bunch of money or if he will get booed massively.

Gacey is more popular in Southern Illinois that Blago.

Someone asked earlier what Bailey’s endgame is and the answer to that is the wingnut welfare circuit. Every step he has taken has just been to get to more power and fame. When governor does not shake out, he will start a speaking tour about how he took on the liberals of Illinois.

He can charge 2 bits a gander and still make tons of money.

What exactly were the arguments for eliminating home rule? It was obviously a hard sell.
