Well my good Senator Mr. DICK Durbin of Illinois is at it again. Hey I take it out on all parties. If I disagee I say so. It seems DICK shot off at the mouth again. I've been looking for a good Democrat to vote for you know a moderate conservative honest one. Good luck Howie. Yes I'm a big fat swing voter. Kind of out of place aren't I, a moderate in a sea of heavy right wingers. But if this is the guy they are going to put on the ballot for me. Well sorry I just can't do it. Actually I've only Voted for two Democrats that I can recall. Simon and Poshard VS Ryan (that's George Ryan the crook). At least on a state or national level. In local races where I know people I tend to go more by the person than by the party.

From my ILL Republican newsletter dated 07/29.

DURBIN LEAKED INACCURATE INFORMATION TO TURLEY.U.S. Senator Dick Durbin went back on a previous denial that he was the leak for Jonathon Turley's Los Angeles Times column, published Monday, where it claimed that when Durbin asked what Supreme Court Nominee John G. Roberts would do if faced with a case that conflicted with his Catholic upbringing Roberts said he would have to recuse himself from a judgment. Turley had verified his conversation with Durbin's press secretary before publishing the story but was rebuked Tuesday by the Senator's office. On Wednesday, Durbin admitted that he was indeed the source for the column but that the account was inaccurate because Turley never identified himself as a journalist. "He (Senator Durbin) made a serious mistake that could have had major implications on the nomination process," Illinois Republican Party Chairman Andy McKenna said, "Senator Durbin's actions are disrespectful to both the integrity of t he process and the people of Illinois who demand the highest level of honesty from their U.S. Senator. (Washington times 7/27/05)

Also seems we have some out of state influence in the 8th district here in ILL.

·BEAN CAN'T RAISE CASH IN THE 8th. U.S. Rep. Melissa Bean (D-8 IL) has been raising a lot of campaign cash, the only problem is that only 7% of her individual contributors are from her district. In her Q2 FEC report, Bean raised more than $130,000 through liberal pro- choice fundraising conduit Emily's List out of Washington D.C. and over fifty percent from individuals outside of Illinois. "Melissa Bean needs to ask herself which group she wants to represent, the people of the 8th district or the people in Washington D.C.," Andy McKenna said, "The evident lack of support will catch up to her in the voting booth."

Well mark another one off the list.
