He helped start a relief fund for military families, pushed for better health care benefits and made a point of attending funerals for Illinois service members.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m all about character in politicians, and have a pretty zero defect mentality towards that, which explains why I loathe the serial philanderer Newt Gingrich.  And attending funerals for service members who made the supreme sacrifice might not be the biggest thing to some people, and I understand that, but to me, it&#8217;s a sign of what the man truly is all about.  <\/p>\n<p>Lets be honest, he could pick his nose on TV and be less of an embarrassment than Blago, and he apparently eschews the Chicago Machine politics.  So, crazy lib or not, I hope this guy does well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UPDATE: Go read Matt&#8217;s post at Blackfive here, sounds like a REAL GOOD man.
