Oberweis Extends Losing Streak

Yeah, maybe the Dems are on a continuing roll.
CHICAGO - A longtime Republican district [in Northern Illinois] fell to the Democrats Saturday when a wealthy businessman and scientist snatched former House Speaker Dennis Hastert's congressional seat in a closely watched special election.

Democrat Bill Foster won 53 percent of the vote compared to 47 percent for Republican Jim Oberweis. With all 568 precincts reporting, Foster had 52,010 votes to Oberweis' 46,988.

Or maybe Oberwiess just can't ever win a fucking thing, ever.

This is too funny. Although, I thought it was the last election that he brought the illegal mexican issue to the forefront. Also, with the amount of money I pay for his milk, I could have bought a cow by now..although his milk is really good.
