on his own home state

Rep. Mark Kirk needs to concentrate on his own home state of
Ill. Obviously they have no problems as he spends all his time
with his nose in Alaska's business. We need these bridges as
we have very little infrastructure, few roads and are growing
past Anchorage. Mark is trying to make decisions for Alaska.
He needs to help his own state. I won't even go into the problems
that need to be addressed there. Perhaps he's trying to keep
the focus away from his problems there by going north. We don't
want him.
I'm a lifelong Republican,
but am now considering becoming a Democrat along with a lot of
Alaskans because of Mark Kirk.
