Dick Durbin ROCKS!
I just heard on the radio that Dick Durbin was in Chicago today and was questioned about the latest terrorist alert and he said...(paraphrase)......"I question the timing of this alert. If the administration has definite info on an attack, I suggest they tell the American people what it is instead of throwing out these alerts with no facts to back them up." Go DICK!!!! I love that man!

5. Nope--- Majority Leader.
The word has quietly gone out that President Kerry would VERY much like to have a Majority Leader Durbin in 2005. :)

10. I too would like to have a Dick Durbin Majority Leader in 2005!
Tom Daschle is a mere weakling who has to appease a hard-right wing base in South Dakota. Let's have our leaders come from Blue States.

4. Durbin proves himself peerless yest again. Nobody else is close.
He always tells it like it is. He always stands up to Chimp. He always fights.

9. Durbin's The Best!
He's a real straight-shooter and a nice person to boot. Durbin and Obama will be great for Illinois and the rest of the country.

Its hard to find politicians one can trust, but Durbin is definitely one of that elite crowd!

14. The people of Illinois are quite lucky...
I get May Landrieu who stands up to the Republicans only when it's not a threat to her re-election.
