U.S. Senate candidate Jim Oberweis stopped by the WROK studios on Wednesday morning to discuss his campaign challenging the incumbent Democrat Dick Durbin.

We spent the better part of 45 minutes talking with him about his background and the issues that matter to voters -- stop back tomorrow for the full audio from that interview. But in the meantime, here's a Quick Fire video interview with the current State Senator focusing on the lighter side of life. Among the things we found out:

  • Cubs, White Sox, Cardinals, or other?
  • What's on his "bucket list"?
  • What are his favorite and least favorite ice cream flavors?
  • Will there be an Oberweis Dairy coming to the Rockford area?
