Why? So he can lose worse?

Anyone who knows the demographics of the state knows the overwhelming majority of voters live north of I-80, with most living in Chicago and the suburbs//collar counties. That's historically also been why Chicago democrats control this effing state.

In the midwestern primaries, there has been a distinct urban/rural split, with Romney winning the cities and suburbs and Santorum sweeping small towns and rural areas. There is every reason to expect that pattern to repeat itself in Illinois.

I spoke with a guy once from Rockford, who said you have two completely separate states there, north and south of I-80. I believe it.
