Jesse Jackson Jr. is looking at spending some time in federal prison. But who knows now that he has be diagnosed by the nationally renowned Mayo Clinic as mentally ill.
But this brings up a greater point. How does a person who is under investigation for misusing campaign funds, derelict in his duties in the house since June of this year, diagnosed as bipolar, win an election to federal office while in the loony bin, and receive 80% of the vote. WTF??? Its like the twilight zone.
The 2nd Illinois congressional district is about 3/4 minority. Just over 60% black. Its not a racial thing as Jesse Jr's republican opponent was black as well. Issac Hayes his republican opponent seemed like reasonable guy. Dude could not even muster 14% of the vote.

Its like they have been brainwashed by the DNC. Both sides have strict party line voters but how in the hell do you get this loyal. 80%??? I can understand this percentage with a reasonable candidate. But voting party line with a dude with jr's credentials just boggles the mind.
