If the scandal should sink Quinn, the Democrats...

If the scandal should sink Quinn, the Democrats' bases are covered in the governor's race. They invaded the GOP primary and nominated a wealthy businessman, Bruce Rauner, who is that close to Rahm Emanuel, and who has a lot of questionable past business transactions haunting him.

Seems that another Illinois Governor Pat Quinn is in a spot of trouble. From Huff Post, Quinn is, "facing questions about a now-defunct anti-violence program he started in the run-up to his 2010 election after a state audit found funds were misused."

Republicans, "have alleged Quinn used money from the $55 million Neighborhood Recovery Initiative as a political slush fund to secure votes in predominantly minority neighborhoods of heavily Democratic Chicago in a tight race."

A political slush fund to secure minority votes has a familiar ring to it.

I grew up in Cook County, Illinois so I am familiar with these spats between the Republicans and Democrats. These turf fights sometimes serve a useful purpose. Once in a while some politicians and their fixers go to jail. Ald. Thomas E. Keane once second to the Elder Mayor Daley went to jail. Otto Kerner another Illinois Governor went to jail.

Rarely if ever are there any similar spats between Republicans and Democrats in Indiana. It seems the Republicans and Democrats have a cease fire in place in Indiana. Thus, the impression is given that corruption and crony-capitalism stops at the state line.
