Why I Didn't Vote For Mark Kirk In The Primary

From the Sun Times: Kirk retreats on repeal of health-care bill.

A Giannoulias spokeswoman pretty much sums it up: "It reveals that Congressman Mark Kirk is more interested in political calculations for his own personal gain[.]"

I had come around to giving him a pass on supporting Cap-and-Trade, hoping that he had seen the error of his ways and was now, more or less, going to take more conservative positions.

Much as I don't want Giannoulias in the US Senate, it might be worth it to keep Kirk out.
