* Will Gov. Pat Quinn have the resources to hold off Illinois Comptroller Dan Hynes in the Democratic race for governor?
Team Hynes insists it's making progress, and a poll a few days ago by the Rasmussen organization strongly suggested that Mr. Hynes is more electable than the guv in November and that Mr. Quinn has problems with female voters. But Team Quinn says it will be on TV "pound for pound" in the closing month -- in large part due to a contribution from the Service Employees International Union that I hear tops $500,000.
SEIU must be pleased with what it sees. But always keep one thing in mind with that union: It's government workers conspiring for more government. Who loses?
You do. The taxpayer.
