POLITICS | Jones grooms son for Senate seat, but presidency is another matter
Following the lead of political families like the Strogers and Lipinskis, Illinois Senate President Emil Jones is anointing one of his children to take over for him when he retires in January.
When does it end? Whatever happened to free elections. Do we even want Emil Jones Jr. as a State senator? We sure as hell didn't want Stroger!http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/1 ... eb.article
