Illinois State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country. Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% highest in country. (Look'em up if you want). Chicago school system one of the worst in country.
Body count. In the last six months 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago, 221 killed in Iraq.
Our leadership in Illinois... All Democrats. Sens. Barack Obama & Dick Durbin, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., Gov. Rod Blagojevich, House leader Mike Madigan, Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan, Mayor Richard Daley... Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago. Of course they're all blaming each other. Can't blame Republicans, they're aren't any!

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. He's gonna "fix" Washington politics?
