Illinois' Bad Economic Performance

Tom Cross reports on the land of Obama and Blagojevich:

Since 2003, when Illinois Democrats took control of Illinois government, Illinois has lost 63,000 manufacturing jobs. Illinois currently ranks 45th in the nation in job growth and we continue to see major employers in Illinois reduce their operations or move entirely out-of-state.

As if the tax increases were not enough, Illinois Democrats are spending our state into deep and massive debt. Illinois has the largest deficit of any state in the nation-totaling nearly $4 billion.

Not something to be bragging about.
