Why Neither Kirk Nor Giannoulias Will Make it Past One Term | NBC Chicago

Illinois’ second,  U.S. Senate chair [currently held by Sen. Burris]  has been a one-termer for many years.

Schock and Madigan are both young. So far, both have been spotless, nimble politicians. They’re capable of holding the seat for a long, long time. It’s too bad we’ll have to wait six years to see either in the Senate.
