Illinois’ Democratic nominee for US Senator

by Rossputin | 5:49 am, February 7, 2010 | Comments Off

Now that Alexi “the mob’s banker” Giannoulias has become the Democratic Party’s nominee to challenge Republican Mark Kirk for the US Senate seat being vacated by Roland Burris, I think it bears reminding people (especially in Illinois) of an article I wrote about Giannoulias before most people (especially outside of Chicago) had heard of him or thought of him as a major political player.

This kind of stuff must make Mark Kirk quite happy to have this guy as his opponent.  Rasmussen Reports‘ most recent survey (taken Tuesday and Wednesday) has Kirk leading the mob’s banker by 6% continuing the trend of the last several months of Kirk’s position improving relative to Giannoulias.

Please see “Will Alexi Giannoulias be Obama’s next ‘not the man I knew‘?”, by yours truly, 8/27/08
