11. Don't be so sure.

The state Democratic party is worried about this election. I have been phone banking for Quinn, and I really can't tell how things are going. I am just trying to GOTV for Quinn.

I hope Madigan is already at work finding a way to put this fool in jail. He is a crook already. He does not need to be elected Governor of Illinois to prove that. I wish they could put him in jail now, and save the state the time and money it will take to try and incarcerate another Illinois governor.

Even if he is elected, the Democratic majority here will not work with him. He has already, on two occasions, threatened to shut down the state government if he cannot get his way. We saw how well that worked out for the federal repubbies and the the economy, didn't we? Illinois is in fragile enough financial shape without this nonsense.
