Oh my gawd! Another politician being a politician! Surely you jest!
Oprah, don't you know everything isn't for sale!
Ahahahaha...I like it!
meh. It's just another tuesday here in Illinois...
Unfortunately, I think along with Louisiana and New Jersey, we have the most corrupt state government in the union.
This sort of thing happens way too often here.
Wanna bet Daly turned him in...
Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.
Oh good Lord.
That's just stupid.
How do you expect to NOT get caught doing that? Just think about it-all someone who wants the Senate seat has to do is keep any correspondence and turn it in to the authorities, then run on being the reformer who refused to play ball with the corrupt.

At least give Louisiana a little credit. We (including "me" because I live in that district) threw William "Dollar Bill" Jefferson out of Congress!!!! He's the guy who had a freezer full of bribe money.
Nobody really knows who this Vietnamese dude is that we elected, but Anh "Joseph" Cao (evidently pronounced "Gao") is not Bill Jefferson, and that's the main thing. Hey, it's a start!!
Honestly, I was more happy about Cao upsetting Jefferson than I was about OU hitting Mizzou for 60.
You tell me it's the institution. Well, you know, you'd better free your mind instead.

Is this the window of opportunity for Ron Zook?
