Illinois Senate

You Do Realize

That there can’t be a nominee for the Republicans until the first week in August if Dillard says no? Unless the GOP is going to try and announce while Barack is about to give the key note speech which would further consign the sacrificial lamb, errrr..I mean candidate to anonymity.

Illinois Senate Republican Nomination Cattle Call 7-21

1. Salvi. Until someone connects him to McCulloch and then he’ll be toxic to conservatives.

2. Jack! Well, hell, he still is the candidate maybe he really is getting back in since there is no reason he couldn’t have sent in the damn paperwork before.

3. Dillard. Probably getting out. Who can blame him. Wingnuts in Leader Board want to open his divorce files. Unclear if they are closed. Of course, that hasn’t stopped the Leader before.

4. Elizabeth Gorman. Will raise name recognition and might not hurt her since everyone pretty much understands this is a suicide mission.

5. John Cox. No one likes him, but what the hell, it might be funny to watch him blow a million of his own cash.

6. Robert Plummer. Edwardsville Businessman. Really, he isn’t a trial lawyer and he works in Edwardsville. Who knew?

7. Corinne Wood. An answer to the question of whether social conservatives might actually ever vote for Barack Obama.

8. The OberFurher. Would the President show up in Illinois to campaign against this guy?

9. Borling. McCain might bring some attention to him.

10. George Wendt. I told you I was going to do it.

11. Jonathan Wright. Who? What? Where?

12. Kathuria. Resume line, Came in third to President Obama in the 2004 Senate race and surprisingly strong libertarian Jerry Kohn.

Maybe His Fax Isn’t Working

Just in case Jack! doesn’t have a working fax or his acrobat reader isn’t working, Austin Mayor has nicely mailed a copy of the withdrawal form to Jack!

And Austin-Mayor has sent it with tracking information so we can all track it and make sure that the Good Mr. Ryan knows how to withdraw. Tracking number and link at AM’s site.
