Gov. Pat Quinn today said "the time is fast approaching" for U.S. Sen. Roland Burris to step down from office because he can no longer be effective in serving Illinois.
Quinn, however, stopped short of saying whether he and state lawmakers should rely on a provision of the U.S. Constitution to call a special election for the Senate seat that could force Burris out of the post.
It's time for Burris to go. Actually, he never should have been in the Senate at all. The Democrats in the General Assembly should have called for a special election fill Barack Obama's old seat.
