C’mon, man!
Keyes knew the 411 when he got in. He said anything he wanted because he could. He used the IL-Senate race to get conservative principles some air time.
Keyes did the conservatives a favor by stepping in knowing his was a losing race.
I would hope that Alan is asked to contribute to the the nominees campaign...he is a true Constitutional conservative and deserves to participate.
BTW: I’m looking at Perry a bit more seriously, lately.
It was worse than that.
Bozo had blackguarded the GOP candidate using the Chicagoland toilet-seat-wrappers to publicize the guy's sealed divorce papers. Axelrod got them from a tool at the courthouse and dumped them on the ink-stained accomplices.
The Illinois GOP rolled over and played dead. They exhibited in spades all the useless, spineless mushiness that we've all come to associate with RiNO doormats -- "Please don't beat me, Mr. SlimeRat JournoLiar, I am but a humble, gutless functionary of the Stupid Party!"
They were worse than pathetic, they gave up their right to live, in the face of lowdown, provable thuggery by a guy with a shadowed past full of Communist bomb-throwers and hate-filled pseudopreachers -- and an Indonesian passport or two. The Illinois GOP had plenty of stuff to work with if they were willing to fight these scumrats, but they played dead instead. The Illinois GOP WAS dead.
