Kirk is one of the few republicans I might vote for. Considering the PVI of the state is D+6 and will likely be lower in 2016 (without Obama on the ballot); Kirk is moderate enough to hold on. Especially if its a hack politician like Ducky or Bustos.
He'll have a tough time against someone like Madigan. Foster I think would be a good challenger but he'll be 61 in 2016 and probably wants to settle in to his new district and gain some seniority. Lipinski I think would have a very good shot at beating him because he could hold down Kirk's margins among various catholic and dixiecrat constituencies. Quigley might be good too since he has a more reformer image among the Chicago congressman.
