AP -- The head of Illinois' Republican Party says state Democrats owe the people of Illinois an apology.
Andy McKenna is chairman of the Illinois GOP. He says so-called 'Blagojevich Democrats' didn't need to wait until former Gov. Blagojevich was in handcuffs before he was removed from office.
He said Democrats are leading the state in the wrong direction, and he looks forward to the Republican Party producing "a new generation of leaders."
McKenna called Quinn a "political opportunist."
