Political Editor Chuck Sweeny will try to de-mystify things for you -- once he figures it out himself, that is.

He has consistently shown poor judgement not only in his political endorsements (which show how out of touch he is with his constiuents) but in his lack fo helping solve any of the major problems facing his District. He needs to be replaced by someone that will actually work and work hard for the 16th District. That someone is Robert Abboud. How can voters even consider voting for Manzullo ?

Manzullo is protected by his cronies at the Register-Star. He says he's for small government, but his minions brag about bringing back federal pork to Northern Illinois - of course, they don't call it pork, because that would out them as the big government Republicans they are. Anyone who has "lots of friends" in Washington to "get things done" is not the taxpayers' friend. To have any credibility, he needs to spell out how he plans to balance the budget. The last good think Manzullo ever did to fight big govt was to fight against forced integration. He'll go McCain, because he is Washington establishment to the core. Bank on it.
