Democrats would mismanage country

Todd Stroger and his cronies can't operate Cook County with any fiscal responsibility. Governor Rod and his buddies can't come up with a balanced budget or operate the State of Illinois with any fiscal responsibility.

What do these things have in common? A pair of donkeys that only know how raise taxes and spend, spend, spend.

Why any citizen of Illinois and especially Cook County, in their right mind, would want people like these to be in charge of our federal government is beyond me. Consider how ineffective the legislative branch of our federal government has become since they took over.

Nothing gets accomplished!

Before we all get enamored with a sweet talker who promises everything to everyone yet has not even a simplistic plan to achieve one thing, maybe we, and the nation,should learn the lesson of Illinois and Cook County.

Rather than constantly repeating the word "Change," perhaps they should show us how they can clean up the mess they made in Illinois and Cook County and "change" that.
