As an IL democrat I was a fan of Raja, but now I'm having second thoughts.
Dick Durbin has been a wet noodle trying to stand up to the corrupt, murdering, lying, cheating, aggressive, war mongering, bullying, ally destroying embarrassment of an administration.
Will Raja follow Dick & write stern letters & speak in monotones at press conferences? His commercials say he's a fighter, but appeasing down state repubs is not what we need in a senator when the nation is fighting ice in the streets.
