Illinois Politics and more

It is official: Mike Ditka will not be running for the Senate. Barak Obama is as of yet, unchallenged. That is amazing. Please try to catch him at the Democratic Convention on July 27th.
Of course, Al Gore will be appearing on July 26th..Monday. He should be accepting the Nomination..for re-election but will instead be giving a speech before Bill Clinton. May it be as fiery as is his style as of late. We all go on.. although it is hard not to imagine what could have been.

Imagine a State of the Union address where the President talks about global warming and climate change instead of Weapons of Mass Destruction, war and fear. We as a people can take our country back. It isn't just dem vs rep. It is so much more than party politics. We need leadership that will not lead us to the gates of oblivion.
