Oberweis and Brady are both relatively conservative. Gidwitz is a liberal. Did you notice that Oberweis (who earned his fortune) is described as wealthy, but not Gidwitz (who inherited the Helene Curtis fortune)?

Topinka is another George Ryan. If nominated, she will put the final nail in the coffin of the Illinois Republican Party. Maybe that's the only way it will change.

I think you are right about that - Judy Baar will have to get blown out in the general election before the Illinois Republicans come to their senses and stop letting the liberal media select the candidate.
