The 99% have taken to the streets and your LakeCountyEye has joined their ranks to Occupy the Lake County Roundabouts. Frankly, after an hour of stone cold protest marching round and round and round a traffic circle, your LakeCountyEye needs to set for a spell and maybe check the e-mail.

Well, when the great unwashed speaks, your LakeCountyEye listens. As readers of this blog are backwardly aware ...
Dold & Hammer
your LakeCountyEye dug up some startling parallels between 10th District Congressman Robert Dold and former Republican House Majority Leader Tom Delay. But after reviewing the new oppo, it has come to your LakeCountyEye's attention a disservice has been perpetrated on the representative and that Robert Dold is no Tom Delay. The two politicians are totally different. Different in 10 ways, to be exact:

Kenilworth is in Illinois' 10th Congressional District. The Democrat gerrymander will not be effective, if at all, until the 2013th Congress.
hi Anon,
I stand corrected.
-BB-
BB,
No correction needed on your part. Anon is the one in need of correction fluid.
...The "2013th" Congress will be in a few centuries.
...2011-12 is the "112th" Session of Congress. 2013-14 will see the "113th" Congress.
...The March 20, 2012 primary is scheduled to be held for the newly drawn maps which means residents of Kenilworth (incl. Quick-draw McGraw Dold) can not vote in the "10th" for the primary or the general election next year.
PS - for all the Republicans' fits about "gerrymandering" ... they were the ones who drew the current Congressional maps 10 years ago. Phil Crane (remember him?) even bragged about how it was gerrymandered to help the GOP. Boo-hoo.
