Illinois senate race

Obama has the support of 69 percent of Illinois voters, and Keyes has 24 percent, according to a poll...
Sigh. The Republicans were always going to lose this seat, but couldn't they have at least gone down with some dignity? I know what happened. It was one of those games of diversity one-upmanship: okay, we'll see your black guy, and raise you a lesbian daughter! The problem is, Republicans always lose that game. When will they learn?
