Illinois Politicians Audition At Convention
The Hill:
Four Illinois Democrats considered to be at or near the top of the list for a Senate appointment if Barack Obama becomes president had their national auditions Monday evening.
State Senate President Emil Jones and a trio of young statewide office holders -- Attorney General Lisa Madigan, Comptroller Dan Hynes and Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias -- all took the stage at the Democratic National Convention within minutes of each other to testify to their relationship with Obama.
