Question of the day

Monday, May 21, 2007 - Posted by Rich Miller

We did a “one word” thing last week for Blagojevich, Madigan and Jones, and it went over pretty well.

So, let’s expand on that today.

What one word would you use to describe the following people… Pat Quinn, Lisa Madigan, Jesse White, Dan Hynes and Alexi Giannoulias?
