My point is....it makes us look like a bunch of political hypocrites to complain about Hillary and give Dr. Keyes a pass for doing essentially the same thing. I would guess that some Democrats in New York "asked" Hillary to run too.
If the law in Illinois is such that anybody from anywhere can run...well that's not good IMHO. This means that any old political hack can go from state to state that allows anyone to run until he manages to get elected.
This is a childish argument, and it changes nothing.
How did you feel when Dick Cheney changed his Texas residency after decades so that he could meet the constitutional restriction on a POTUS and a vice-POTUS being from the same state?
How hard did you rail on him?
When Keyes et al. complained about Hillary, it is clear that he thought she was violating some unwritten rules. That Hillary got away with it shows that those unwritten rules don't really apply. How, then, is it hypocritical for Keyes to decide that, since Hillary has shown the rules not to apply, he is not bound by them either?
I think the operative saying is, "Well, if you want to play that way..."
