Who Should Take Obama's Seat In The Senate?
Should it be someone from congress, or someone from the state legislature? Any Illinois DUers want to weigh in on this?

Or anyone else for that matter. :)

6. So?
Like Hillary was from New York?

Or what about Alan Keyes, for that matter, who the 'Pukes ran against Obama for that very seat.

9. What's supposed to be the controversy about Jesse Jackson Jr?
From how people speak, there's supposed to be some sort of down side to picking Jesse Jackson Jr. I don't know enough about Chicago politics to know so can someone fill me in?

About all I can come up with is that if Jesse Jackson is picked, some of the racists might try to claim that it's a black conspiracy but that's all I can think of since I don't know too much about the situation.
