From the great website, Demconwatch. This is the guy who'll replace Denny Hastert.

Illinois' 14th District will hold a special election to fill the shoes of Denny Hastert on Saturday. Democrat Bill Foster is in good shape to defeat Republican Jim Oberweis. SUSA released a poll today showing Foster up by 7 points over his opponent.

A win by Foster would not only increase our majority in the House but it will also bring the superdelegate number back to 795.


If you watch his ad you'll know who he'll endorse when he wins.

3. The Chicago F***ing Tribune endorsed (Democrat) Foster over (GOP) Oberweis!

Maybe they'll abandon him in November but still this is jaw-droppingly historic.
