Brady would be a very good candidate. If he holds on, this is great news, and a pretty big upset.

Have they declared a winner in the race for the Dem Gov nomination yet?

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Just intercepted, an email to Pat Quinn from ACORN’s Chicago Office:

“Who do you want to campaign against, Brady or Dillard? Please advise, ASAP.

[DM1]

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

[CPT Clay]

[federal]

Yeah I knew about the Senate primary but I didn’t know anything about this one. But Thanks for you reply.

[bcsco]

Brady’s more conservative than Dillard. Yes, this is the best we can hope for based on the election results (I voted for Andy A.).

[GreyFriar]

two guys each with 20% of the vote. Where is the other 60% percent of the vote? was there a choice for “none of the above?”
