No.
We've talked about this on other threads, but I think this is a very bad idea. Keyes couldn't even win in his own state, and he'll not advance his cause by being the first(?) to lose a Senate run in two states. Why should anyone take him seriously after that?
That, and if we're going to be honest we can't use the "carbetbagger" tag against Hillary.
Sure, he'll get some press in the short term, but in the long term he only hurts his own ability to get the message out there.
Bad idea all around. The Illinois GOP is stocked with losers, top to bottom.
I did not believe he had a chance either but I will admit I was very impressed with his speech today. This may not be the disaster you speak of and there is no doubt that he is the best candidate possible at this time. He promised Obama a Battle not a Victory to us.
Be that as it may I see NO downside in his running and every upside in forcing the debates to include a strong, articulate American voice to counter the lil Commie Cutie's bilge and treason.
We have selected a gem easily the best option for Senator the Republicans have had in decades.
What has degenerated into a prize to the purchased by rich men, the GOP nomination is now in the hands of a principled
man who understands the thought of the Founders and therefore the essence of this nation and the Freedoms it is discarding. This is a WELCOME development.
For that matter, who takes him seriously now?
LOL!
