Voting for Keyes is a vote for the nimrods in the IL republican party that somehow, thought it would be a neat idea to bring in an out of state guy who is universally disliked by voters.

You try to figure out the complete madness of the party, I just think they went mental. And when Alan loses for the 5th time, will the godsquad ask why God's candidate can't win?

Yes, I agree, though I haven't lived in Illinois for 20 years, I'm ready to believe that the Ill Republicans are nimrods and have no interest in fielding a more moderate candidate with a real chance to win. This is a characteristic also of my current home state of NJ : both the state Party AND the RNC refused to go out of their way to help a really good candidate like Bret Schundler.It's as though the Ill, Republicans know they are too disorganized
and ineffective to field a real candidate, so they looked to Keyes to at least make the race "interesting", at the same time basking in the glow of having a "real smart" guy like Keyes running against that other guy whose name I never get right.

Maybe they will have figured out by then that Keyes has little to do with God....except that he thinks he has the right to condemn everybody who disagrees with him as "evil".

The godsquad? Does that include me? I'm flattered.
