A site for and about the Democratic Party and it's politics (in the spirit of DKos-- I'm an unapolegetic Kossack myself) with the objective of helping to elect as many Democrats as possible in both this year and '08. For and about includes history and how we got here so we can figure out the road map out. And that covers a lot of ground. Add your two cent's worth. No refunds.Be advised this is very much a pro Wes Clark site.

Illinois 06- Tammy Duckworth

Illinois 06 features a good matchup between Tammy Duckworth (Dem) and Peter Roskow (Rep) to replace Henry Hyde. Duckworth faces an uphill fight but can win this district. Uphill battles

aren't new for Duckworth,a 1992 ROTC grad who took a commision in the Army Reserve as a helicopter pilot because that was one of the few combat roles available for women. An Iraq veteran,who paid a price for her participation in that war, Duckworth is currently a Major in Illinois Guard. As a candidate for Congress she brings an awful lot experience and grit to the table and would make an outstanding addition to the House as well as a hardworking and committed Representative for her district. A link to her campaign is below if you would like
find out more about this cantidate. She needs your support.
