I want Quinn to win the primary - he’ll be easier to defeat in November.

[JustPiper]

Yah, just heard him speak on WGN, we get dat down here :)

[GOPsterinMA]

I see. Thank you both for the run down.

For the psy-ops damage of a “Republican” winning Barry 0’s seat, he is what he is I guess......

[BillyBoy]

>> Still, the fact that at least 40% of Illinois Republicans voted for someone other than Kirk is a warning shot to him. <<

At least 49% of Pennsyvania Republicans voted against Specter in 2004, and it only emboldened Specter to move further leftward and screw over the GOP more.

Two election judges were removed today because they were intoxicated.

Okay, I know it’s along shot with the city having the majority of unreported votes, and central IL pretty much done - but go Brady!

There is a reason Peter Fitzgerald didn’t run for re-election in 2004. He would have lost badly.

No. He was told by Baar-Topinka and company that he would not be supported because he was looking into corruption by both parties. He is why Patrick Fitzgerald (no relation) has been making so many indictments.

At the time it wasn't clear who the nominee for the Dems was going to be. Jack Ryan was polling well until his scandal, and he was MORE conservative than Firzgerald. If you are going to make misstatements about that race, don't bother posting. A self-funding incumbent U.S. Senator with a soft right image would be happily accepted by any sane party operation that wasn't corrupt.

What was it that Rumsfeld said a few years ago?

You don’t go to war with the military you want; you go with the military you have......?

Perhaps, just perhaps, Illinois needs to be better educated. Perhaps, Kirk can be “convinced” to be a Conservative and not a RINO if he wins and takes the seat. Hard work is in store...unless Conservatives can’t stomach getting dirty and actually engaging in sweaty work. Feet to the fire and all that.

[JustPiper]

Yep, holding my breath watching those results

[KevinDavis]

Three way tie between Brady/McKenna/Dillard !!! Adam in 5th place..

I’m surprised that loser Seals is doing so well. I thought Julie Hamos had it in the bag.

[NormsRevenge]

If I can handle the poodle poop I regularly now clean up, I can handle voting in the November election here in california. ;-)
