FILE - In this Sept. 4, 2007 file photo, Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, oversees legislative debate on the House floor at the state Capitol in Springfield. Approaching 30 years in control of the Illinois House, Madigan is no stranger to the challenge of piecing together votes for unpopular legislation while protecting vulnerable members of his Democratic majority. His success at balancing policy and politics to Democrats’ advantage is a big reason Madigan is the longest serving current House speaker in the country by nearly a decade. His current task is securing 60 Democratic votes for an extension of the state’s temporary income tax increase in the 2014 election year. (AP Photo/Seth Perlman, File)
