I'm listening to some bitch on the RNC talk about Palin saying no to the "good ole boys" and only a "mother of 5 could know".

oh, and she's spouting off about how they "will show the boys what girls can really do!"

Oh god, now she's talking about Nascar and "gun toting". I wish I were making this up.

Point is, why is it bad now to be part of washington or to have experience? I'll be honest, I don't know much about politics, I watched cause of all the hype (Obamas black, Hillarys a girl). From what I've seen, every fucking politician is wearing Nascar hats and trying to make themselves look like they're "one of the good ole boys from Kansas" and going to Nascar rallies, etc. Don't we want government to be run by intelligent, well studied people? Not "JIMMY BOB FROM THE BAR". It's getting me pissed.

All of a sudden, Obamas bad cause people like him and he travels around the world. Why do Americans love having rednecks with funny trucker hats as president? It's all fucking talk.

Illinois has traditionally been run by Republicans. Beginning around 2003 the people started booting the old corrupt Republicans and replacing them with Democrats. As it stands now:

State Senate:
Democratic Party 37
Republican Party 22

House:
Democratic Party 67
Republican Party 51

Before the current governor, the previous 3 were all Republicans.
