That's not what they were there for!

I don't really know if I explained the IPass thing right - I don't know if I could!

No one -- not even die-hard Democrats - likes Gov. Elvis. He might like to be the next Senator from Illinois, but he'd hate the commute. Rumor has it Blago may appoint Jesse Jackson, Jr. As for IPass, you'll get used to it. IPass is the least of Illinois' problems.

I'm a new Illinois resident (by two months and 4 days). I get that he's not well liked around here - the IPass thing is just what I've been hearing most often now.

He's a typical Illinois politician...who will probably join Gov. Ryan as a guest of the Federal Government after he leaves office. IPass is a bigger deal to the Northsiders that Southsiders.
