I live in what used to be Kirk's congressional district. I had never heard of Brady before he won the senatorial primary. Are you saying you HAD? How many people around Chicago knew who he was? He had been a state senator from Bloomington. Unfortunately, Quinn was able to paint him as some kind of radical and Brady never was able to introduce himself to the electorate.

Wow where did you crawl up from? Many of us supported Bill Brady in 2006, the combine chose Judy Baar Topinka to take the fall for Blago. I met Bill Brady January 26, 2006 and knew that he was the real deal. I voted for him against Judy Baar Topinka way back then.

Bill Brady was very visible in Cook County. He had an event in Orland Park 6 days before the election and that same night had a fundraiser at Judy Biggert's house in Hinsdale.

The election was stolen from Bill Brady. Roskam won with 64%, Biggert won with 64% their largest wins ever. The conservatives showed up. But due to massive voter fraud and voter intimidation (WHICH I HAVE VIDEO TAPE EVIDENCE OF) Bill Brady had the election stolen.

If you didn't see Brady's ads on TV or the radio then you must be living in a bubble.

And all of the IL FReepers I know knew of Brady long before the Feb. Primary. The combine wanted Dillard to win. Quinn stated before the election that he would raise taxes! Yet he still wins???

How does that make any sense?

Kirk won because Alexi is probably going to end up in prison and the combine didn't want another Blago on their hands. Now I don't think Alexi would be on The Apprentice but he has an ego just as large as Blago.

I met Senator Kirk, I will admit he was a very nice guy, but you know who else I met in 2005 who I thought was a nice guy? Barack Obama. I got his autograph and told my mom that he would be President. Some of us who are IL Political Junkies have insight.

The two FReepers you are attacking know more about IL Politics than you can possibly imagine. One was an election judge and has been active in fighting for conservative candidates. The other has been helping combat the combine machine that sends moles into websites like FR to spread disinformation.

Please look at the numbers of how many folks voted for the GOP Congressmen and that should clearly show you that this election was fixed.

Logic would state that if Quinn won then Alexi should have won. Wake up, this state is being controlled by thugs!!!

I actually worked for an IL Congresswoman I know how bad things are, I personally don't believe she is in the combine for reasons I choose not to share for privacy issues. But one reason that makes me believe this is she was on the stump for Brady, she had a huge fundraiser for Brady at her home!!! Kirk didn't lift a finger for Brady.

Quinn stated before the election that he would raise taxes! Yet he still wins???

Yup. The Tribune says today that Quinn feels he has a mandate to raise taxes. I wish we had had a better candidate than Brady to run against him. Quinn's victory is a disaster. A Giannoulias victory would have been a disaster too. At least THAT didn't happen.

Gawd I hope you're not talking about Judy Biggert. She's completely WORTHLESS. (Yes, she's my Rep. I can't stand her.)
