...Nasty attack ad against Ryan asking people to support Patrick O'Malley for gov.

Is O'Malley now running as an independent?

What are you talking about? Are you trying to tell us that O'Malley is still running? I heard that was not possible due to a "sore loser" law in Illinois.

O'Malley cannot run for Governor in 2002 under a different party label. Illinois has what's commonly referred to as the "sore loser law" which means once a candidate runs in a primary for office, under a party label and LOSES, that candidate is in-elegible for that office in that election cycle.

I really wish people would stop propagating the myth that O'Malley is still running for governor, when legally he cannot.
