Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) told The Hill that he is considering a challenge to Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL).
Said Walsh: I am very seriously considering challenging him in a primary. Mark Kirk has got to be challenged.
The one-term lawmaker isnt backing off his inflammatory comments that made him a conservative star, though, as he weighs a quixotic comeback bid Walsh has since built a local following in the Chicago area with his conservative talk show and if anything has upped the controversy level with a string of racially charged comments in the past few years.

having Governor Ruiner and Senator Walsh both in office at the same time. Blecchhhh! One dedicated to destroying my state and the other dedicated to destroying my country. A terrible twofer!
