I swear this belongs on the Colbert Report, but no, it is real.
The winners? Thom Mannard and…
State Senator Dan Kotowksi.
I hope they give him a plaque. He can put it up in his office and be proud.
Tom Roeser is upset too. It appears someone didn’t know who he was and Dan Kotowski is making a very serious mistake by not going on WLS.
Let’s be clear here. WLS is a station of rightwing fruitcakes who think they are really, really important and everyone should listen to them because they are very important and very serious.
Bullshit. WLS is the Fox News of Chicago radio and Democrats should tell them to shove off. If everyone on your station are wingnuts and your listeners are wingnuts why should a Democrat go on? To make the small group of very serious people feel good about themselves.
Sorry, that time is over.
Tom Roeser’s show has a small audience of the village elders idiots who claim they are very serious and so they expect everyone to pay attention. He has no real influence other than with other wingnuts and they don’t vote for Democrats.
There is no reason to bother. Tom Roeser is nothing more than a bloviating old fool who is self-important. His best days were when Henry Hyde was still having youthful indiscretions. Whining that someone is too cowardly to come on your show just demonstrates my point.
The point on the Roeser bit from 2 and a half months ago, as I understand it, is that it was just a scheduling snafu and Roeser tried painting it into something else. I could be wrong on that but given his tiny audience even if I’m wrong all you’ll get from Roeser’s cheap bottle of whine is a headache anyway.
Can’t wait to see what kindergarten name-calling the ISRA comes up with next. Does Rick Pearson keep a notepad by his porcelain throne?
Tom really needs to take a chill pill. Last I heard, his audience was about 50,000, which ain’t bad. He does have a lot of Dems on the show, but he gets REAL touchy when you don’t accept his invite. Trust me on that one. I know from firsthand experience.
LOL–and I imagine back in the day it was a pretty influential show with a fair amount of listeners all around in politics and so worthwhile. Now–well with the decline of WLS into only a rightwing operation, it’s pretty much Republicans or Democrats who think they have to be ‘serious’
