  1. Corrine committed the cardinal sin of openly trying to get Dems to cross over and vote for her in the GOP primary. Repubs don’t like disloyalty, and a lot of Dems haven’t forgiven her for trying to poach.

    If the IL-GOP were smart, they’d pick Rauschenberger. I’m betting on Gidwitz.

  2. I’ll take Gidwitz to be the sacrificial lamb. But only after they finally get a judge somewhere to let them ignore some more election laws.

  3. Egg on my face — apparently Gidwitz says he doesn’t want it. I’ll have to trust Rich Miller more often. When Rich reported that Gidwitz’s wife is “unenthuasistic” about a Senate race, I thought she would still obey her husband 🙂 Isn’t Stepford a Republican stronghold?

    I don’t know what they’re going to do now. The IL-GOP has to find someone willing to take on a suicide mission. On top of that, their candidate has to acceptable to the social conservatives, not offend the “Main Street” business folks, and has to be articulate enough to debate Obama. No one mentioned fits the bill.

    I also don’t know how they’re going to complete their vetting process by July 12, especially with a holiday weekend in between. Anyone who can self-finance or raise a lot of dough so quickly can’t be checked out in ten or so business days.

    Jack! may not have had sex with his wife at those clubs, but he sure screwed the Republican Party!
