***Stop on by the Studio on 5th Street...We've got Rose Marie Long from the County GOP to chat about the Lincoln Day Luncheon next week...217-629-7970 for your calls!

***So, the City, again, had the opportunity to curtail hiring, to slow the giant growth of our pension obligation and 6 members of the City Council decided to take a pass.  That is so responsible!  From the SJ-R

The Springfield City Council Tuesday also:

Rejected, 6-4, a proposal to bar Mayor Tim Davlin from hiring any additional employees without prior approval by the council. The proposed hiring freeze wouldn’t have included police officers or firefighters.

***THIS will be the next great fiasco for IL Republicans!  Paul Vallas is going to return to IL at the end of the year to run for Cook County Board President in 2010.  Great.  So, the IL GOP will now focus on capturing the Cook Co Board post while the rest of the state flails hopelessly about.  Remember, 2010, all of the Constitutional seats are up, the Burris Senate seat is up, there will be resdistricting following the election AND now the IL GOP is happy to have Paul Vallas jumping into the Cook Co. race?!?!?!?

Nothing like keeping your eye on the ball!

***Kass has Blago's Top Ten Jobs!
