Wow. Yeah. A rock-ribbed, righter than right Conservative losing to a Communist in bright blue liberal Illinois. Who'da thunk it?

Keyes didn’t just lose big in the liberal areas of IL. He bombed out in Chicagoland suburbs that voted for Bush and other conservative legislators. The Keyes campaign assured IL conservatives that Alan Keyes will help build a conservative network to take back the IL GOP and oust the Dems from power in IL. After being spanked by Obama, Keyes took what little donations he had and ran away. Alan Keyes wanting to be the CP nominee is just another scam for Keyes to get money.
