Illinois, From the Colder Prairie Now
It’s been a busy week–comment on who you think is up and who is down. Roll call won’t be up until the evening. Use the comments below for both Republicans and Democrats.
I’m not even close to being done yet, but here is the new home for ArchPundit thanks to the fine Brian Marston who is giving me the space. There is some synergy here as Brian and Amanda Doyle run the CommonSpace which is a local community gathering place for all sorts of arts, entertainment, education […]
From a reader: "Orders of Protection" are not at all unusual in a divorce proceeding in Illinois, particularly when a lot of money is at stake. This is a not a "No Fault" divorce state, so divorces can be hotly contested even between amicable parties. This could have been the scenario: Hull’s wife changes the […]
Zorn reports on the Hull Campaign reaction to the Trib’s request to release the forms: Your request… enters into Blair and Brenda’s most personal and private lives, and affects not only Blair and Brenda, but their children as well. These, and other family members, who are not public figures, need to be advised of your […]
Polis–covering the Senate race in good detail Chicago: Howtown on the Make And someone I’ve mentioned before and is going to be on the new blog roll Dan Johnson-Weinberger
Novak does probably the best tribute to Neal. One should always be able to laugh when remembering someone who has passed.
As I’ve mentioned before, the Kathuria lawsuit against the Trib really turned some modestly positive press into a no press. The press wasn’t upset as much as amused and amusing candidates don’t get a ton of press. Real candidates do. A campaign manager who understood the game would have stopped him from filing suit. Using […]
Are at work on conspiracies behind Steve Neal’s death. Maybe they could just allow the man to rest in peace.
Taking the Pat Buchanan route to the GOP nomination now has Oberweis getting attention on Lou Dobbs. While I’m often critical of Democrats who are protectionist (Mr. Hynes), Republican protectionists always seem to outdo them in stupidity with nativism mixed in with the bad economics. Strangely, for a mouthpiece of business, Dobbs finds an issue […]
So many meanings, so little time
A couple things struck me about Earl’s latest missive. First, Earl acts as if he expected the last e-mail to be private. For those who remember it, his postscript was: P.S. I dare you to print this e-mail verbatim: You know as well as I do that most people know I speak the truth, and […]
"Gentlemen": Now that it appears the RIVERFRONT TIMES is finally bored by the controversy (after 13 weeks!) I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the RFT and that 32 year-old perpetual student, the archpundit, for unwittingly participating as subjects in a small study I conducted. For the eight years we have hosted our […]
I’ll just me to this post on the undermining of science by this administration. As the point was made in comments today, this administration is increasingly relying on faith based science. And I’m not making a snarky creationism comment here, but on a wide range of issues the science is being undermined by ideology. I’m […]
To fairly treat a story like an order of protection against a candidate, one has to be able to make calls and devote some time to the story-the thing I don’t always have and so you have rely on a real reporter. Eric Zorn tackles the order of protection that Hull’s ex-wife, Brenda Sexton, filed […]
