Illinois' 14th District will hold a special election to fill the shoes of Denny Hastert on Saturday. Democrat Bill Foster is in good shape to defeat Republican Jim Oberweis. SUSA released a poll today showing Foster up by 7 points over his opponent.

A win by Foster would not only increase our majority in the House but it will also bring the superdelegate number back to 795.

If you watch his ad you'll know who he'll endorse when he wins.

3. I live in Hastert's old district, and I'm blown away by this.

This is one of the most republican counties in the Chicago area. The population has been growing at an incredible rate over the past few years, though, and it looks like Kendall County is experiencing a little blue-shift. :D

4. How many SuperD's will Obama pick up today?

5. Oberweis Has Run A Really Negative Campaign.......

he has money and he wants in the worse way to be a politician and have some elected office. I recall he's run in other elections and people have rejected him.

He reminds me of HRC in that he'll do anything to win. I don't think he's really interested in the electorate - he's got an ego and he's doing this for himself.

Go Foster!!!!!
