DescriptionHynes

The Hynes campaign appears to be in free-fall following new ABC news revelations that Hynes' office knew about the Burr Oak scandal of bodies showing up throughout the cemetery as far back as 2003. Hynes' competence to lead any public office has been called into question by critics.

At the same time Governor Pat Quinn appears to have all the momentum heading into Tuesday learning and announcing that Illinois will be the epicenter for high speed rail in the midwest creating 6000 new jobs in Illinois. At the same time Hynes is in full damage-control mode.

While Hynes has been reeling from new ABC news revelations that he knew about Burr Oak Cemetery's problems as far back as 2003 and that Hynes misled the Cemetery Oversight Task Force, Governor Pat Quinn has been announcing thousands of new jobs all over Illinois the last days of the campaign with Senator Durbin, Mayor Daley and local officials throughout Illinois.
