Did you know ....?
That Paul Simon holds the record for number of terms in Illinois?
That Richard Durbin was appointed to replace Simon?
That even though Simon was an Illinois state legislator while Durbin was going to college at Georgetown, Durbin was one of Simon's students?
That because Jim Inhofe and Chuck Grassley are in their mid-80s, that Durbin could not possibly choose to retire when he will be 82?
All those fun, but false, facts and ideas come from OC!
Just remember the person who wrote this thread that Paul Simon has the record of terms in IL and Durbin was appointed to his seat and he was a student of Paul Simon, Sheila Simon was on her way to prominence and should of been the heir apparent but she got caught in the Quinn low approvals. Durbin is not retiring anytime soon
If something happens to Schumer he would be D L of the Senate, WHY IN THE WRLD WOULD HE RETIRE AND INHOFE AND GRASSLEY ARE 86
