GOP Clown Car Arrives in Illinois
Here’s our thread to comment on the latest episode of the GOP’s three-ring circus, making its debut tonight in Illinois where Mitt Romney is expected to administer a severe drubbing to the other clowns.

Chicago election officials predicted the lowest turnout in a presidential primary in city history.
It was 15 percent at 2 p.m. and the previous low was 32 percent in 1996, said Langdon Neal, chairman of the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners.

He said he was crossing his fingers that the turnout might reach 20 percent.
