Tammy Duckworth is John F’n Kerry with boobs.
Duckworth’s Republican opponent, the incumbent, Joe Walsh, is in a difficult reelection contest due to the fact that the Democratic legislature gerrymandered the new Congressional district to favor a Democrat. Nevertheless, Walsh is performing much better than expected and Duckworth (a Hawaii native) who is making her second bid for Congress is not connecting with some voters. She moved to run in this new district after losing to Peter Roskam in a previous election.
