Hey, I thought the Illinois delegation had the front row seat at this Democratic Convention.
Not so.
I was down in the delegation here at Invesco Field and saw a cordoned off area right in front of Illinois.
Who are they, I asked Attorney General Lisa Madigan.
"Bigwigs," she replied. Big funders, in other words.
But you're an elected official, I said. A bigwig.
"Nope," she replied, not a bigwig, "just a wig."
