Ditka wasn't interested. A shame. He'd have kept Obama in the state senate.

Obama got into the state senate by going to court and getting ALL his opponents thrown off the ballot, then ran unopposed. He got into the US Senate after the Republican candidate resigned over a sex scandal. He's never had a closely contested election before. If the Republicans can find a halfway decent candidate, he'll be a one term Senator.
