And I like it–more Obama for you from the Atlantic Monthly. I’m sure all of this is making candidates really want to get into this race.
Illinois, From the Colder Prairie Now
And I like it–more Obama for you from the Atlantic Monthly. I’m sure all of this is making candidates really want to get into this race.
I’m stealing from Polis for the intro, but the Trib slobbers over him today. Note, I’m all for metaphorical slobbering over Obama.
But GO JERRY SPRINGER! Jerry is working to revitalize the Democratic Party in Ohio–probably the single most important state in this year’s election for President. I have my reservations about Springer running, but I think this is a good role for him within the Party. So go take a look. O Another place to look […]
One Man has become a nominee on my online poll – at http://glennyb.livejournal.com. Please vote today for one of the following: – One Man – Uberweis -The Incredible hulk – Spiderman – Kruger from Kruger Industrial Smoothings – Jerry Krause – Superman. Krause. Think what Jordan would do to get Obama elected then….
That’s an overstatement, but I had quite a time detailing a bad campaign here in St. Louis–for those who like trainwrecks–have at it over at Blog Saint Louis. He may still win.
It’s unclear to me how illegal some of this is, but scandals can be borne of completely legal behavior. The Sun-Times does a good job connecting the dots in this article. Normally, I’d insert the disclaimer that State Dems have similar issues, but that isn’t necessary since Jack Franks is right in the middle of […]
Okay, another one since I had all the tech difficulties. Let ’em rip. I hear OneMan is under serious consideration.
Lance Did What No One Had Ever Done Before. While I was off on the podium, Americans did well with Levi in 9th, Landis in 23rd, Hincapie at 33, Julich at 40th and Lemont’s Vandevelde in 56th. Tyler’s back problems appear to be getting better despite early reports. Azevedo finished 5th riding in support of […]
So I haven’t been able to track down Dan Proft’s role in the weird Ditka deal the morning he announced he wouldn’t be getting in, it does appear that Dan and the happy gang of delusionals have been pushing Ryan to get back in the race. In a telephone interview Friday from Ryan’s Chicago headquarters, […]
Here. He’ll be getting used to medium for a bit, but I have a feeling it will fit him well.
The Trib picks up the hard race story today. Crane, the original ideological puritan on small government is actually running on bring back money to the District. He also touts his seniority and conservative credentials, saying that the Democratic nominee, Barrington businesswoman Melissa Bean, 42, would vote with her party and have little clout to […]
But I think we can now say we have a budget. What was so hard?
The Trib offers a personal for the IL GOP. State political party looking for candidate to challenge opponent who has money, buzz, Big Mo and torrid friendship with national media. Age: We’re open-minded, but fussy provision in U.S. Constitution says you must be 30 or older, citizen of U.S. for nine years, resident of Illinois. […]
The Trib has a rather good editorial on the need for many districts to be consolidated. Mike Lawrence often writes on this as well. Ultimately, small districts can do better if they join together for services even if they maintain schools in specific communities. It can happen by design or by emergency.
Between a potential Illinois Senate Candidate and a camera. Rich Miller’s weekly column traces the publicity many of the publicly floated names are gathering through pretending to be interested. His final advice is for everyone to cool it. I’m sorry, this is too much fun.
