In this special episode of The Middle, we take some time to remember former Illinois Governor Jim Edgar, who passed away last week at the age of 79. Gov. Edgar was a true political moderate and bipartisan - and he represented a kind of tact and even-tempered approach that is fast disappearing from politics today. He was also one of the first panel guests on The Middle. Jeremy is joined by journalist Sean Crawford, Managing Editor of NPR Illinois. #JimEdgar #Illinois #Politics #Moderate #TheMiddle #Republican #Democrat #Bipartisanship
