CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Blagojevich "wants to set aside ‘free-flow’ lane for those who share rides, drive hybrids," but I am sure he really wants to set aside lanes for those who vote for him, who contribute to his campaign, and who, if selected to serve on his jury, will say that he is innocent

But the real reason for them saying that is to avoid being called a racist by Obama's racist supporters. Needless-to-say, those who can and will fraudulently increase Obama's vote totals known that.

-- Economy divides 14th Congressional candidates - John Patterson
http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=242760
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: 1,401 respond to Naperville survey. "92 percent of respondents are satisfied with overall quality of life in the city, compared to the national average of 77 percent." Naperville is run by Republicans. I am sure that with few, if any, exceptions, residents in municipalities run by Republicans are more satisfied than residents in municipalities run by Democrats. Yet, outrageously and hypocritically, I am sure that Democrats in municipalities run by Republicans are overwhelming dissatisfied and argue that things would be much better if Democrats were running the municipality.
