You Know, I almost feel sorry for the people in Il-2.
First they had Gus Savage, who got in trouble for sexual harrassment, and played the race card whenever someone confronted him. "It's the Jews fault" basically.
Then they had Mel Reynolds, a promissing Oxford graduate, who wound up in club fed for having sex with an underage campaign worker.
Now they have Jesse Jackson Jr, who was in my opinion fairly decent until he sold his soul to Rod Blagojevich in an attempt to land a higher office.
Quite frankly Bozo the Clown would do a better job representing that district than the last 3 reps they have had in there. It also shows the big downfall when one party controls politics in an area for an extended period of time. The representative may be a total screw up, but come hell or high water people are still going to vote for that screw-up as long as he is the candidate of their party.
