It's a Squeaker in Illinois...
By Byron LaMasters
To see if Barack Obama will defeat Alan Keyes by more than Paul Sarbanes and Barbara Mikulski did.....
1988: Sarbanes 62%, Keyes 38%.
1992: Mikulski 71%, Keyes 29%.
2004: Survey USA poll (PDF) - Obama 67%, Keyes 28%.
Personally, I'd bet on Obama between 62% and 71%, but then again you never know when Keyes compares himself to Lincoln, and Obama to slaveholders. The Illinois GOP could have at least tried to win this race, but this is more fun...
