During the campaign, conservatives and self-proclaimed "Tea Party" leaders told us that Rauner's views on abortion didn't matter, because the Governor has zero power to do anything the matter. Nope, all that matter is Rauner is a FISCAL conservative, and we all know just how awesome so-called "FISCAL conservative" RINOs have been in the past. < /sarcasm>

Now, Rauner's fan club has been gushing over him in the past week and saying how awesome it is to have a "Republican" Governor in Illinois, saying he's "hit the ground running" and "its like a kid in a candy store" waiting to see what he'll do next.

Looks like we found out what his next move is. First, he hired Jesse Jackson's second-in-command at Rainbow-PUSH to run the IL Dept. of Education, where he has pledged to implement Common Core, now he's hired a leading "abortion rights" activist to run to Healthcare & Family Services, apparently because promoting abortion on demand is the most important health issue for Illinois citizens.

Ain't it great having a RINO with an "R" next to his name as Governor of Illinois?

I think this is what is referred to as a conflict of interest.

Well, he had me fooled. Although I didn't overly support him, I was happy when he won.

When the state falls even more in the crapper, he and the non-existent state GOP will get the blame, and IL voters will vote for even more leftist lunacy.

A more accurate description is a DINO with s “D” next to his name.

He said Obama’s executive amnesty was a good first step.

Someone who worked for Planned Parenthood by definition knows nothing about health or family services.

“While serving under Democrat governors Blagojevich and Quinn, Claps greatly expanded the Illinois Human Rights Act and human and civil rights laws in Illinois. The expansion included extra-legal protections for citizens categorized as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. He also created a bilingual services department within the IDHR to more effectively communicate with all communities in Illinois. Claps is also the first openly-gay agency director in the history of Illinois. Prior to his work at the IDHR, Claps was a Deputy Assessor in the Cook County Assessor’s Office. He also worked on two Democratic National Conventions, and in the Office of the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services under Democrat President Clinton.”
