Looks like to me that the Democratic party is more interested in saving a Senate seat for the party than looking out for what is best for Illinois and the country.  Lookin' in from the outside in, looks like same ole politics in Illinois.  If a opposing candidate is more appealing to the Illinois residents, apparently the Democrats in Illinois give a rats-ass.

 

It would seem to me that the residents have the absolute right to decide considering on the conditions brought on by the pending vacancy.  But then, Democrats from anywhere do not suprise me when it comes to establishing their power anyway necessary.
