It must be nice to have a functioning media in a state. Look what happened in Illinois:
In the race for President Obama’s old Senate seat, Republican candidate Mark Kirk has spent the past couple weeks hammering Democrat Alexi Giannoulias over the failure of his family’s Broadway Bank. On Monday, Ed Marshall of the local CBS affiliate told Kirk it was time to talk about something else.
“Channel 2’s made a decision: We’re really not going to cover the Senate race if it consistently, only in your terms, is about Broadway Bank,” Marshall said. “The bank’s been taken over by the government, Alexi’s been pilloried. Tell me: what is your campaign going forward? What are the issues that you are going to tell the voters why they should vote for you?”
So, the media in Illinois is actually covering the Senate race? Well, I’ll be damned. How many people in Delaware actually remember there’s a Senate race here this year?

Considering the field of candidates for ’10 does anyone care?
We are talking about Chicago, where corruption by a Democrat candidate for office is considered a qualification rather than news.
And to qualify to run for office in TX you need to be able to connect all of the dots and read See Spot Run.
Almost amusing, MJ — the difference being that between us, I’m the only one who has lived in either Chicago or Texas.
And as a resident of Delaware, I’d be very careful about throwing stones. You folks kept electing a buffoon like Joe Biden to office.
“You folks kept electing a buffoon like Joe Biden to office.”
Yes, you Texans are lucky. Your supply of buffoons is almost endless. Delawareans who turn to government for entertainment were forced to vote repeatedly for Joe “BFD”Biden.
Joe Biden also accomplished a lot of good in the senate. For all his verbal vomit, he is an effective politician. All Texas ‘tards are good for is starting wars, deregulating oil companies, and putting the mentally handicapped to death. That is the thing the “dont mess with Texas” crowd will never get. To the sane world, all your “Texas Pride” is just a punchline.
