Illinois 06---Tammy Duckworth Looks Strong
Meanwhile over in Ill 06 the race
is heating up. Tammy Duckworth is
leading her opponent,Republican't Roskom,who can't quite figure out,like many a Republican,that the electorate is severly pissed. Roskom has shown he deserves to trail in the race for Congress with some very ill conceived remarks that have received strong criticism from local media. Duckworth is getting out to poeple and working hard for victory in a district that was held for many years by Henry Hyde and has been favorable to the GOP for many a year.

people are nervous. Not about terrorism,something they are,of course concerned with,but about what immediatly concerns them. such as their standard of living. Whether their kids will have the same opportunities. Their jobs. They are nervous and the GOP doesn't seem to offer a whole lot to ease their concerns. When candidates like Roskom use the Fear and Smear in the districts they wish to represent it falls on an increasingly unreceptive electorate. One that seems willing to reward the hard work and sacrifice of Major Duckworth with an opportunity for more hard work and sacrifice as the Representative for the Congressional District of Illinois 06. To make that happen will take lot of hard work as the calender moves closer to E-Day. If you're in the area I'm sure the Duckworth campaign would welcome your help.
