I just met 3 folks from Illinois while on vacation. (note they weren't together) The horror at the thought of Obama in the white house and the commentary regarding his past performance and loyalties (as well as Illinois in general) is very, very scary. Problem is - we're all trying to keep our heads off the financial chopping block and little time to really research our candidates.

I think allot of this on Obama was let go because nobody thought he would win the nomination. Everyone thought it would be Hillary.

Chicago Gets Highest Sales Tax in US
http://www.newsvine.com/_news/2008/03/02/1337912-chicago-gets-highest-sales-tax-in-us

You forgot former Black Panther Leader turned Alderman Bobby Rush, rabid reconquista Rep. Luis Gutierrez and the father-son pair of thieves John (now deceased) and Todd Stroger. This is a city where the Gangsta Disciples were given money to help get out the vote. Why not?
Our politicians go to jail so often that nobody even pays any attention any more. They need to build a special Illinois Politicians Wing onto the State Prison.

Typically, anyone who is a decent and honest person does not go far in Chicago Democratic politics. They definitely do not shoot to the top of the heap in as short a time as Obama did.

With OBAMA just like the Nigerian SCAM, money talks. OBAMA promised 95% of the people (from his percentages) MONEY. There are more people blinded by GREED than common sense.
