Which doesn't work for Air America here in Chicago, and hasn't for a while, but never mind the details. . . Chuck D. did a brief interview with Aaron McGruder this morning on Unfiltered, with Davey D along for the ride. I think you can hear the show on the Air America Place - Air America Radio mp3 Archive. However, I've been wrong in the past.

Also, WBEZ mentioned a few days back that Barack Obama does have competition in the Senate race, just not a Republican. Well, technically, since Ryan hasn't gotten around to filing the paperwork to remove himself from the ballot. . . he's been very busy you know. . . anyway, there's also Jerry Kohn, a pro-life Libertarian, and Albert J. Franzen, an Independent. Should that be capitalized?

There are interviews with both these gentlemen, as well as reactions to last night's keynote from Judy Baar Topinka and other Illinois residents, up at WBEZ's Election Coverage Audio Library.

Huh. Should probably change that title to something about turning your PC speakers on.

And scrolling down the page of BEZ's archives, there's also an interview with one of the other contenders for the GOP nomination, Dr. Chirinjeev Kathuria.

No, I'm not going near that one. I do have some tact, you know.

Update: Jack Ryan officially withdraws from Senate race, by way of those fun-loving kids at Gapers Block:

"Tuesday we will have a US Senate candidate who, I really do believe once you get the comparison going, is not only going to give Obama a run for his money, but could very easily defeat him," said [State GOP leader Judy Baar] Topinka.

[. . .] The mystery will end Tuesday when the new republican candidate is announced.

Ok, I can see her saying, "very possibly defeat him." But easily?

Um. . .
