YOU BETTER CORRECT THAT! I NEVER VOTED FOR HIM. The damned redrawing of the congressional districts all the way down to Kankakee voted for him. He represented nothing that this part of his district wants or wanted. His replacement will be just as bad - a dumbo from obamaville.
Relax. I addressed my post to the State of Illinois. They, or at least the mindless robots in his district, voted his ass into office.
The rest of the State -- you included -- have to deal with the fact that at one time, he and his colleagues all represented the entire State of Illinois at the federal level.
In a manner of speaking, Jackson was the best candydate you (meaning the citizens) could offer.
Jackson, and people like him, make the rest of the good citizens of Illinois look like idiots.
That's how badly his actions have affected your State.
It's sad, but true.
