And the people of IL are are stupid as you are.

No! The problem is the media is incredibly biased and talk radio is almost non existent on a local scale. The newspapers are way left.

There is local conservative talk radio, but I would argue even they are in bed with the Combine. Remember back in 2010, all the local "conservative" radio shows kept gushing over "Republican Mark Kirk" and pretended he was the ONLY Republican candidate running in the primary. They brought him on as a "special guest" so often and fawned over his "service" in the military so much, it was practically a free infomercial for Kirk. Try to imagine national conservative talk radio figures like Limbaugh or Levin pimping the likes of Kirk. It would never happen.

Worse, in 2014, the majority of Illinois "Tea Party" groups openly endorsed liberal Combiner Rauner and touted him in the primary to conservative voters. There were stories that Rauner spent $2 million alone just to buy the endorsement of various "Tea Party" groups. "Illinois Tea Party Patriots" even sent out an email the day after the primary, taking credit for helping his win the nomination over real Republicans.

The fact so many self-proclaimed pro-life, pro-gun, and pro-freedom conservatives here are working for the Combine is a huge problem, IMO.
