Now that we got "Change" I think we are wondering what an ALL democrat congress and president will bring us. Lets look at Illinois with their all democrat leadership and the results they have achieved as an example. After all this is where Obama is from and the base of his experience.

Chicago.... Who Runs it?

Senators: Barack Obama & Dick Durbin
Representative: Jesse Jackson, Jr.
Illinois Governor: Rod Blogojevich (at least as of this morning)
Illinois House leader: Mike Madigan
Illinois Attorney General: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)
Chicago Mayor: Richard M. Daley (son of Mayor Richard J. Daley)

The leadership in Illinois? .....all Democrats.

Plus:

Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago.

Body count in the last six months: 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago
221 killed in Iraq keeping terrorist on the run

State pension fund - $44 Billion in debt, worst in the country.

Cook County (Chicago) sales tax - 10.25% highest in country. (WOW, and still in debt. I guess higher taxes do not fix things)

Chicago school system - rated one of the worst in the country.

They can't blame Republicans because there aren't any.

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois.
And he's going to '"fix" Washington politics for us? Good luck and may God help us
