I can admit when I was wrong or ignorant of the full breadth of information, like when I thought George Bush was EVER anything besides a big government CINO.
By the time Ober ran for Congress I was well aware that his nomination would risk the seat and as we know he did indeed lose. Chris Lauzen should be in Congress right now. Instead he lost the nomination after being smeared by Oberweis.
I won’t insult Oberweis by calling him the Illinois Romney, oops I just did. I shouldn’t have voted for either of them.
Ha I don’t even remember a Jonathan Wright on the ballot for Senate in 2004, I voted for Jack Ryan.
“So has anyone figured out where Rick Merkt stands on social issues?”
Well there’s
“1998-1999 Assembly Member Merkt supported the interests of the Family Planning Advocates of New Jersey 0 percent in 1998-1999.”
and
“Merkt sees civil unions as de facto “gay marriage” and is vociferously against it. Marriage is an ancient social, cultural, and religious institution, the Republican assemblyman contends, and he says his fellow lawmakers had no right to change the time-honored institution. Nor is he alone in his strong disapproval of yesterday’s vote.”
Cristie has allegedly been pro-life for the past 14 years.
Merkt looks like maybe he would be better than Lonegen but he’s gonna be a distant third place. I hope he’s considered for LT. Governor.
***I won’t insult Oberweis by calling him the Illinois Romney***
That is an insult to Mitt Romney is much more intelligent than Loserweis. Plus Romney has succeeded in the private sector. Loserweis fares poorly in all of his endevours from his politics to business. His ice cream stinks.
