What Choices Will Tammy Duckworth Make Regarding Iran.

I am an Illinois Democrat who needs to make a choice for Senator next Tuesday. I know that Mark Kirk is Number 1 on contributions from Pro Israel. Tammy is high on their contribution list, too. I am glad that she is supported by whomever.

My priority is anti-war, and that causes me to be concerned about Tammy Duckworth's priorities. For most reasons, she would be my choice. What will she be willing to do to please these organizations?

Edit--So sorry if I offended anyone. Why would I joke about such a thing? As I said, she would be my choice.

I'm sure it was unintentional but you may want to edit your post title.

If I were an Illinois voter, I would not hesitate to vote for Tammy Duckworth. It would be an honor!

You can count on Tammy Duckworth to make better decisions than Mark Kirk about anything. Including Iran.

Democrats support Democrats. Republicans like Kirk want to engage in military tactics for all foreign difficulties. Support Tammy.

BTW. Interesting race where one candidate has lost limbs and is considered handicapped and the other candidate suffered a massive stroke several years ago and is also considered handicapped. Has this ever happened in electoral history? A breakthrough.
