Matthew, here in the land of Lincoln, Obama and Gov. Blago, they are talking of having their, as they refer to it "Con-Con". Now, this was voted down in November. So, as with California and the "gαy Marriage" bill, they are thinking of ignoring the people and having this convention anyway. The pretense is that with Illinois "collapsing in turmoil" this will allow them to deal with getting rid of Blago and picking a new governor and state senator.
I have been thinking, since this rot from Illinois is going to go right up to the newly elected President and taint his presidency (at the very least Rahm Emanuel will go) that this could be the spark that  takes down government (collapse has we have talked of here before).
I see that Gov. Bill Richardson is going under investigation as well.

They mentioned this on the radio this morning. 560 a.m. That we really need a Con-Con  in order to get rid of Blago.
Roscoe, Either Obama or Rahm Emmanuel (his Hermann Goering) has Blago's old seat. It is so incestuos you need a score card.
Now, watch the Madigan family moving. The daughter is the Attorney General and she went after this foolish govenor last week. Her father is the head of our state Senate.
Then there is the Jackson family. All friends of Obama. Jackson Jr. hugged Barack and cried when he won the nomination.
There is so much corruption. Michael Savage is doing a fairly good job of exposing this. Well worth a listen.
I will let you know what I hear locally that I know will NOT make the media.

State Constitution. They were Big John and Cisco along with a democrat congress men  (name evades me).
Say did you see more headlines on Rahm over on WND?
Also Arnie Duncan of Chicago now head the nation's schools. Why is the reason given on local radio? Since Chicago schools are a crime (listen, in parts of Chicago there is almost a daily shooting/attack at bus stops, fights, you name it). The reason is because they are basketball chums and former community organizers. Read Commies
