And markets are always looking for longterm signals. We just gave a very bill longterm signals that i believe in what i am hearing is opening the door to investments in the United States and that is a very good thing but people should also keep in mind and be converted by the fact that our climate decisions have been referred three times by the supreme court. There is no where else did go. They said move forward and that is what we are doing and so i think it is the strong a signal as we can possibly have, that the u. S. Is open to looking at how to devise a low carb and economy and get it moving and running in a way that will entice investment. That is good for everybody. Madam administrator, let me tell you we deeply appreciate your taking time with us and the work you are doing and if i get it right i would like to borrow an expression from your book, you did wicked good. Thank you. [applause] that is all right. The media at a going to have a little press availability right here. [i
Final closing remark. The winner is Bobby Schilling. Mr. Schilling but to have the last closing statement. Cheri bustos has the first question tonight. Robert shaw and had no Just Announced theyre moving their jobs to mexico. This is devastating to the town and is also the county. What we do to keep jobs and use more specifically in northwest illinois . Bustos from day one since the election since i began to serve jobs and economy have been my number one priority. Im proud of the fact we have had success in bringing jobs to this area. After more than one decade of waiting weve been able to open the thompson present where 300 jobs on the way, another 800 next year. This is after a decade of waiting when previous folks serving in this role couldnt get that done. What youre talking about as far as these jobs being shipped over to mexico have been devastating.

I love illinois. And i cannot stand to see what pat and Rob Blagojevich have done to our homes that are at risk. The future for the children is in jeopardy under the failed leadership of the corruption, cronyism, the patronage of job losses, the brutally high taxes, to be funded schools. We are failing as a state and i will not let it happen. We need bipartisan solutions. We need real leadership. We can make illinois the greatest state and the greatest nation in the greatest nation on earth and i can drive the process. The people of illinois are fantastic. We are the hardest working families to the most fertile farms. We have the best location. We are the heart of america. We can strive leadership that solves problems on a bipartisan basis and brings a real work ethic and integrity back to the government. Im excited to go to work for you. Moderator this is a terrific studio auditions. But get an applause to those both of our candidates. [applause] thank you governor quinn and republica

The first was in 1940 when Benito Mussolini italys Prime Minister asked the greek Prime Minister for free passage through greece and on the spot at 3 00 in the morning without hesitation, without consultation he said oy he said no. It was spirited defiance and quite incredible when considering just how vastly outnumbered the greeks were by the italians. It prompted sir winston churchhill, the greatest figure of the 20th c
When i was growing up. My father was a plant geneticist so we found ourselves moving around quite a bit because he ended up going to places that focused on crop science. We spent some time in wales and then we moved back to india in 2007 and i spent a year there and for those of you who know a little bit about modern indian history, it was 1976 the year of the emergency rule a tough time for academics and there were a lot of restrictions on free speech. My father decided we have to get out of here so we ended up emigrating to the United States in 1977 and eventually ended up settling in setting california and that is where i grew up. Like i said my father was a plant geneticist. My mother was of biochemist who worked part time but mostly was of homemaker and she spent time raising s and they wanted me to become a doctor. In that generation especially among immigrant indians there was nothing more noble and better that you could do. Sort of coloring their vision was the fact that they h
