WASHINGTON--Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney--eyeing a 2012 presidential race--headlines a lunch fund-raiser in Chicago today for GOP Senate candidate Mark Kirk--and I'm told Romney is coming to talk about jobs and Kirk.

Rove & Slick Willard are working hard to elect pathological liar, Socialist IL Combiner Mark Kirk, a soon-to-be party switcher.

Now this is the real Romney, not the one fooling Jim DeMint, Ann Coulter et al.

In the past month, Kirk has held campaign events with McCain, Giuliani, AND Romney at different times. He's really workin' hard to get the Rudy McRomney 2008 Team on his side. No doubt Mitt's appearance will sway Fieldmarshaldj and GrayBeard into supporting Kirk. ;-)

But I can't help notice Kirk reacted like Superman to Kryponite when Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin were in Illinois to promote GOP candidates...

Romney and Kirk=Two sides of the same false coin.

I wouldn’t be the least bit sorry to see Kirk lose. Gianoulias will probably wind up in jail before his term is over and there will be an open seat. We will have to primary Kirk in 2016. He may be there forever.

Yuck. What a choice.

Kirk has been begging for Palin’s endorsement for a long time, but he has been rejected.

“Kirk has been begging for Palin’s endorsement for a long time, but he has been rejected.”

**************************************

Kirk is a proabort social liberal, in addition to being liberal on many other things. Palin does not cast her pearls before swine.

Voting for a RINO is like spitting in the wind. I know it’s going to come back and hurt me.

It also reminds me of a comedian joking that his father used to say “Kid, get me something to beat you with”. I’m loading the weapon which is going to hurt me some day.

I fully expect Alexi to go to jail, and he will cause far more of a black eye to the Democrats. Kirk will only aid the Democrat cause while masquerading as a Republican (before he makes it official and switches parties, which was the plan all along). Alexi is merely a crook, Kirk is a dangerous Sociopath. Governor Brady will appoint a respectable person to the seat, and it won’t be that scumbag Kirk.

Didn't you just run a vanity extolling the virtues of taking back the US Senate?

“Didn’t you just run a vanity extolling the virtues of taking back the US Senate?”

Yes I did. And taking back the Senate means more than just having an R behind your name, while behaving and voting like a Dem.

Mark Kirk is proabortion and pro cap and tax. Kirk is a RINO backstabber on whom no conservative can rely. He would betray if it were expedient just as your boy Castle, Murkowski and Crist.

I didn’t say I hoped he lot. I just don’t care. I would devote the resources to other races. If he is the deciding vote for the majoirity then it is not really a majority.

If he wins, he wins. If he loses he loses. I could care less.

Kirk? Now we KNOW Kirk supports RomneyCARE, Romneymarriage,
TARP, Cap and TAX, and Obama -— like Romney, the Herpes of
the GOP.

I hope he wins, and if I were casting the deciding vote I would definitely vote for the RINO instead of the Democrat. Nothing is worse than a Democrat.

However with more than 5 million votes likely to be cast, I have a better chance of winning the lottery than deciding the election. So given that I will vote for a third-party conservative instead of Kirk. Then when people analyze the election results they’ll see all those conservative votes which were lost by running a RINO. Last time I checked the Libertarian vote against Kirk was 5%. That could put a scare in him, and make him less likely to vote with the Democrats.

Romney is ruining several GOP elections to the
best of his ability .... as he has done in the past.

Obama and the DNC are fortunate to have such a
duplicitous ally.

In this case it was the Illinois Republican Party that gave us Kirk, not Romney. Kirk threw a public temper tantrum and said he wouldn’t run for the Senate unless all Illinois Republican politicians supported him, and wouldn’t run against him in the primary. After a week of public negotiations, all the conservative politicians caved in. So Kirk had an easy primary and Illinois voters didn’t have a chance to vote for a well-funded, experienced conservative.

The bad thing is, is that Illinois' primary is in February. We tried to primary Kirk but Hughes (I think that's the conservative's name) didn't have enough time to gain traction, with the Scott Brown thingy going on.

This is one race where I would rather flat-out see the Democrat win. I hope IL conservatives vote down-ticket and skip the Senate slot.

Hell, Kirk makes Castle look like Reagan. The guy is a living, breathing pile of crap.

RINOs are poor-sport bosons who rob the citizenry of
primaries and conservatives at the core.
