Ill. House speaker dragging feet on anti-Burris resolutions

There's are elections in Illinois next year. I just thought I'd mention that...

Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan (D-Chicago) is preventing three resolutions denouncing Sen. Roland Burris (D-Blagojevich) from reaching the floor of the House. One is sponsored by a Democrat.

Madigan's daughter Amy (Correction: Lisa), Illinois' attorney general, is exploring a run for either governor or Burris' Senate seat.
