From Tom Roesser
The delicate sensibilities of Crain’s Greg Hinz are offended because Mark Kirk called President Obama “this guy” and further…perish the thought…that Republican Kirk wants to see Obama become a one-termer—Hinz thoughtfully detailing how important it is to expand Kirk’s influence beyond the Republican base…an idea evidently shared by a major newsletter-blog-fax in town since it seemed to pass on approvingly Hinz’s suggestion.
Meaning that Kirk would become an Arlen Specter-like handmaiden to the reigning liberal orthodoxy of The Squid. The idea would neuter Kirk and make nice-nice with liberals…more than he has already when he voted for Cap and Trade in the House…with the result that if Kirk got elected…which is looking more certain as the days go by…he would become indistinguishable from Chuck Percy (who gave us via Gerald Ford John Paul Stevens as an enduring Supreme Court legacy).
