re: Illinois Sec. of State
I've heard that wrinkle about SOS needs to certify the appointment, but also that he doesn't. And the Illinois AG is not exactly a disinterested party. That's a rats-nest that the ISC will have to untangle I guess.
But Reids behavior is so lame I can't stand it. He's been all over this thing, interfering with a state issue. Reid's statement:
"We [Senate] determine who sits in the Senate. And the House determines who sits in the House. So there's clearly legal authority for us to do whatever we want to do. This goes back for generations."
Pathetic. Just pathetic.
