Four Senators gone....

Well, I suppose if you are a conservative Republican, you’d like seeing these Democrats going to the Obama Administration in order to give the Republicans more power in the Senate. But now, Senators Obama, Biden, Clinton and Salazar presumably will be gone. Did I miss any others? There is such thing as experience and while none of these people are really seasoned, excepting Senator Biden, it does take away some years of experience.

Of course for Colorado, I will not be too upset to lose Ken Salazar. I would rank him as o.k., but not the strongest Senator. He has introduced little legislation and none of note. Still, he can be classified as a moderate, whereas the liberal Colorado Governor might appoint a liberal Senator. As Interior Secretary, well at least Ken knows a little about the West.

With Illinois, all I can say is that prick of a Governor had better NOT appoint somebody… especially himself!!! The people of Illinois deserve better and might even deserve a special election. Problem is they have to get Barack’s seat filled in a timely manner. I know it would serve Illinois Democrats right to have the special election happen and a Republican take the seat…
