Democrats Ill. Lt. Gov. Nominee’s Past History of Domestic Violence?

-By Warner Todd Huston

Nice move Democrats. You go from crooks and bribe takers to violent criminals!

The Democrats just nominated a guy, Scott Lee Cohen, that has a history of holding a KNIFE to the throat of his girlfriend!

Scott Lee Cohen — a pawnbroker who shocked state Democratic leaders Tuesday night by winning the party’s nomination for lieutenant governor — was arrested about four-and-a-half years ago and accused of holding a knife to a former live-in girlfriend’s neck, newly obtained court records show.

Is it impossible for a Democrat NOT to vote for a criminal of one type or another in Illinois?
