Opinion: State Rep. Jim Durkin is an endangered species — a socially moderate, fiscally conservative gentleman who plays well with others. Now, the reasonable dad of the Illinois Republican Party has had enough, post-election.
Illinois state Rep. Jim Durkin delivers a speech during a rally on Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair in Springfield on Aug. 18, 2022.
The mom in me wants to fold my arms, give the “Mom look” to those who have made this mess and say, “Now look what you’ve done. What do you have to say for yourself, young man, young lady?” But I won’t because I know what will happen if I do. While our nation watched in horror as the Capitol was stormed on Jan. 6, 2021, Jim publicly condemned the insurrectionists, earning us death threats.As a former Cook County prosecutor and father, Jim just wants to keep everyone safe.
I think about Jim’s U.S. Senate race against Sen. Dick Durbin that was gentlemanly and without lies and mudslinging because that is what you call good sportsmanship. Remember that? They distinguished themselves by focusing on facts and policy — with emphasis on the word “distinguished.” To this day, we’re proud to call the senator from the other side of the aisle our friend because he’s a good man, even though his and my husband’s political philosophies are not at all aligned.
