Illinois, From the Colder Prairie Now
Via Talking Points Memo Bill Bennett thinks he has a mandate for the Great Relearning…. um, dude, this wasn’t a vote to create a real version of the Handmaid’s Tale.
Yes, please. He’s exactly what the doctor ordered and Bush can threaten him all he wants. Dick Durbin will be the Senator from Illinois as long as he wants to be.
Hang on folks, the race for Governor in 2006 has officially started! WOooohOooooooo! Capitol Fax Reports Rauschenberger is in! I’ve said many nice things about Steve in the past. He’s a goto guy on state budget issues and is incredibly bright. I’d considered him a reasonable Republican, until he and Syverson joined in inviting Alan […]
I’ve been talking about it a lot lately and mentioned it a couple times on here–It’s been all Bush all the time. Karl’s plan worked.
Of course, if the Illinois Republican Party would just move to the right….. They could lose every election by ten points or more. Keep it up gang! Bush, George (i) Rep 2,313,415 44.73 Kerry, John Dem 2,826,757 54.65 Badnarik, Michael Lib 31,863 .62 Kerry underperformed by three from my projections. The lesson here is I […]
Deluded to the end, Alan thinks that someone wants him to stay. Thanks Syverson and Rauschenberger. We’ll be remembering whose fault this is when he tries to run again or, if the mouth from Maryland runs for Governor against Rauschenberger. That would be irony wouldn’t it? With 5 precincts out, Obama is just below 70 […]
Cegelis came within 10 of Hyde. Two things would be needed here–probably a slightly more moderate candidate and money. Money. Money. Money. It hit close to my prediction. Renner, well, not so good of a showing and I was completely off on the prediction. Bean did a great job and after a week or so […]
It was God, Guns and Gays. Every number I’m looking at shows what appears to be an increase in Republican base turnout and that is largely due to abortion and gay marriage. Karl Rove’s strategy to bring out the evangelicals who didn’t vote in 2000 worked. Democratic turnout seems to be up as well, just […]
Not looking good for Kerry. New Mexico is probably toast and unless I’m wrong about Ohio, welcome to four more years. It’s probably a booby prize of a Presidency, but that’s not much of a conciliation. The Senate was more predictable from 2 years out than it was from one week out and the House […]
With Nevada and New Mexico open. New Mexico not looking particularly good and Nevada being a toss-up. I’m continuing to drink and thanking the Bush’s I’m out of draft age.
