This guy is a RINO. He's ASD(anti self-Defense), pro-abort, voted for CFR, and the leader of the 'Main Street" wing.

Then there is Dale Shugars. Pro-2a, pro-life, conservative, and he CAN WIN.

People always complain about the RINO's, now we have a chance to DO SOMETHING about it.

Good to hear. It's unfortunate that incumbants are so hard to oust, especially in the primary. We didn't manage to knock off any RINOs in the Illinois general assembly (although even national conservative groups had "targeted" that IDIOT Renee Kosel (RINO-Mokena)) Nor did our U.S. Congressman Mark Kirk (RINO, replaced Porter) or Judy Biggert (borderline RINO soccer mommy) get any serious challenges. O'Malley was considering challenging the latter back in '98, and he may do so again in 2004.

On the hand, Republicans only have only four seats on the Cook County Board, and TWO of them are RINOs. I'm pleased to report BOTH RINOs were defeated in this year's primary. Allan Carr (R-15th) is SO liberal that Daley and Stronger had openly supported him over their party's candidate, and Herbert Schumann (R-17th) is a squishy RINO who caves on issues and thinks being endorsed by the Sierra club was a GOOD thing. Replacing them will be Tony Peraica and Elizabeth A.D. Gorman, two stauchly pro-life, pro-gun, and anti-tax Republicans. Despite being Cook County, they are in conservative suburban territory and should win the general election fairly easily.

So now we'll have four conservatives on a board with 20 or so liberals. Oh well, every bit helps-- and even the Dem primary results showed that Stronger's power grip is getting VERY weak. Only two of his "recommended" candidates one.
