During a Tuesday night meeting called by Rep. Jerry Costello (D-Ill.), nine of the delegation's 10 Democrats who attended concluded they should not to move forward with the redistricting idea being pushed by Reps. Rahm Emanuel and Jan Schakowsky.
"The conclusion that was reached [Tuesday] night is we have more of a concern for the institution than we do our partisan concerns," Costello said Wednesday. "There's not a consensus. There are a few people in the General Assembly and a few people in the delegation that would like to proceed, but there's not a majority consensus on this so for the moment the issue is dead."
He added: "Just because this was done in Texas doesn't make it right."
What this tells me is: the GOP WANTS it worse. One of the reasons they've been winning stuff lately. We're fighting under Marquis of Queensbury rules; they're biting and crotch-kicking, and there are no referees.
