Link hasn't made changes for better

State Sen. Terry Link was in Denver as a delegate for Barack Obama, the candidate for 'Change!' Sen. Link is a four-term incumbent that is part of the controlling leadership in state government that has lead to Illinois now ranking #1 in corruption (calculated by number of indictments of elected officials, ahead of Louisiana and New Jersey), and #7 in property tax as a percentage of median home value, while Cook County has recently been awarded the honor of having the highest sales tax in the nation. And they still can't balance the state budget? If Sen. Obama is elected president, let's hope that his idea of change is much different from Mr. Link's.
