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, Pascoe said staying in the race was something Ryan appeared to consider only in passing, at the urging of staff members who suggested a “wave of remorse” by the public over Ryan’s situation might make it possible for the campaign to survive.
A wave of remorse? Where was this wave? Because I’m pretty sure that most people in Illinois moved on after a couple days of chuckling.
The cult of Jack! is one of the most bizarre things I’ve seen in a while. The guy seemed to be a perfect empty suit with the most notorious episode being his discussion concerning the Treaty of Westphalia while not knowing anything about the Kjellander scandal. Why exactly is it that a clueless clown has so much support without knowing much about what his supporters apparently care about?
If I was a supporter getting paid five figures a month by the candidate, I’d be pretty loyal. I’d also have a pretty big wave of remorse about now!
