I think the Democrats need a nice, divisive, long, drawn-out, vile, vicious recount.

[Theodore R.]

There is no hope for IL Republicans: tney are still voting for Barr Topinka as well as Kirk, who makes Jacob Javits look conservative.

Couldn’t believe McKenna was leading. He never even showed up for a debate. Who voted for him??!

[KevinDavis]

I voted for Brady too!! I take back that Dillard was the best candidate.. Go Bill!!

>> National Review states unequivocally that Dold is a solid conservative. <<

Whoever is reporting that at National Review must be smoking some strong stuff. Since when has a self described “moderate” candidate who says he’s “leaning toward” supporting abortion, gun control, gay rights, closing gitmo, wall street bailouts and prides himself on his “green” credentials a “solid conservative”? Why would all the pro-Kirk sites who tout RINOs be heaping praise on Dold if he was conservative?

Consider the facts:

Too bad the lower candidates couldn’t just give their votes to Brady & concede -g-

[STARWISE]

Stroger’s DONE!! Yes !

[ConservativeMind]

Go Brady! After heading down in the last poll by some 3-4 points, I figured he was out and Adam was the best to support. Thankfully, I was wrong!

After hearing the “pro-Adam” stuff in the last few days, I went into the polling booth and voted for Adam—not my first choice, but a reasonable choice. However, it is most important that we get a decent conservative to win the primary over the RINOs. Brady will be a great option over the RINOs.
