There is no way he can survive if he is on Team Obstruction. Kirk likely only has a term left in him so at this point he cannot be taken out by a primary challenger. But if he helps McConnell, he is going to get obliterated in November, especially if Trump is on the ballot with him! Represent Illinois, or sign your own death warrant...

Senator Kirk must be reading my commentary on atlas...

If Sandoval is the nominee, Kirk gonna vote yeeeeeeees.

Wow, I've been quite distracted lately to have missed this. If I vote in the Democratic primary, I am sure that I will be voting for Tammy, but I guess I should double check and see why Zopp is getting so much love.

Always in good company if with the People's Pat!

Amen.

She is better than Mark Kirk, but 2010, Kirk defeated a steller candidate in Ginnoulius, he shpuldnt be underestimated either, and we will have a primary on March 15th.

Was Ginnoulius really that great of a candidate? I found it very hard to "pull the lever" for him and almost considered voting for Kirk.

Human Rights Campaign Endorses Kirk

I am literally speechless. I guess Bernie was right about the HRC.

Lol
They need a token Republican, like how the Tea Party endorsed Walt Minnick (D-ID) in 2010.

Two of them apparently - article notes they endorsed Dold as well.

Duckworth and Schneider may have just lost the election. Nice!

If Trump or Cruz is on the ballot, they'll both get Blanched, regardless of HRC endorsement.

I just noticed Human Rights Campaign and Hillary Rodham Clinton have the same initials.

Pls change thread title to: HRC endorses Kirk
