Sauerberg is a totally unknown obscure medical doctor running against Durbin during an election year with Illinois' own Barack Obama on top of the ticket (thus making it extremely difficult to "beat Durbin" even if the GOP had fielded a popular, credible political figure as his opponent), but some posters here seem desperate to work night and day trying to convince freepers to hitch themselves to Sauerberg's pathetic campaign.

Sauerberg and his fan club seem desperate to avoid giving conservatives ANY information about their own candidate -- who he is, what he believes in, how he will govern if elected. If Sauerberg's staff gets any stricter with the 'he's not Dick Durbin' target message, Sauerberg would probably enter the U.S. Senate with a paper-bag over his head labeled "Durbin's Republican Opponent"
Perhaps they're so terrified about discussing Sauerberg's views because they know he's an pro-abortion, pro-gun control, gay-rights friendly empty suit RINO with zero qualifications. And we can't let THAT little detail become public on FR, can we?
