Topinka leading Blagboy

April 24, 2006--In the race for Illinois Governor, Republican State Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka now leads Democratic Governor Rod R. Blagojevich 44% to 38%. In March, Topinka led 43% to 41%. (source: Rasmussen Reports)

I'm glad Topinka won the primary, because somehow I doubt that any of the others would have been able to best Blagojevich. But the amazing thing is that the nation's apparent disenchantment with the GOP has not affected this race. Either people really hate Blagojevich or the GOP is not drawing as much flack as one would have expected--in Illinois at least.

That doesn't mean Billie Roth can get away with not having a website...
