Obama and Biden need replacements.
Illinois: Jesse Jackson jr? Don't think so. Rahm Emmanuel? Got a better offer. Tammy Duckworth? Might just work.
Delaware: Beau Biden? Hard to vote from Iraq. 'at's all I gots.

For the Delaware opening, my money is on outgoing Lt. Governor John Carney.
He lost the Democratic primary for Governor by a razor-thin margin to Governor-elect Jack Markell, the state treasurer.
Outgoing Governor Ruth Ann Minner (term limited) is also a Democrat.

I know you got the inside scoop up there, but why not Jackson? I don't know much about him, but he's in with Daley's machine, right?

And please, please, please don't let Blagojevich appoint himself.
Of the choices I've seen for Illinois, I like Mr. Claybourne the best.
Here's a pretty good rehash of the current buzz:
