After years of being a supporter, and yes, fan, I finally got to meet former House Speaker Newt Gingrich today. At the Chicago Reagan banquet on Sunday, Gingrich laid down a challenge to the Illinois Republican Party. To bring Illinois' 19 electoral votes into the GOP column. Yes, we are talking about President Obama's home state. I asked Gingrich the likelihood of a GOP win in the Land of Lincoln. He was hopeful, citing "45 percent unemployment among young African Americans in the state the long term unemployment problem" in Illinois.
