I love Bill Brady, but I will be voting for Oberweis, another very good candidate.
I only hope that the Gidwitz/Topinka duo split the liberal GOP vote so that a Conservative can win the nod.
I also hope that Brady doesn't wind-up getting 8% of the GOP primary vote on March 21st while Topinka beats Oberweis by 5%. That would really stink.
Anyhow, I hope Bill Brady picks up momentum, but unless he starts showing some life in the polls and fundraising, I'm very happy with Oberweis. Nothing wrong with Jim.
My biggest fear, however, is that the Illinois GOP will continue to be so desperate for victory that they'll all line-up behind Judy Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar Topinka. Remember Bob Kustra? Ugh!!!!!
Also, remember to vote for Sandy Wegman for Lt. Gov.!!!!

Same here.
Me too! I met Brady's wife last night ... charming. Brady's a bright guy with a great future, but he needs to drop out of this race --- NOW!!
Gidget is spending big tv bucks bashing Judas and stil getting no traction.
Let the two of them slug it out while Obie slips in as the only conservative in the race.
Oberweis is a successful businessman and a nice enough person, but I am voting for Senator Brady. He is a seasoned legislator and has voted pro-life, pro-family, pro-businss pro-2nd Amendment for over 12 years .... as compared to Oberweis's osmosis from liberal to conservative during his failed attempts in politics.
The Brady family has also had success in over 21 enterprises. They are out-of-the-box-thinkers and have the imagination and vision that is needed to create jobs opportunities in Illinois.
My biggest fear is that it won't just be the GOP!
With Blago's opponent tanking, my guess is that Daley will have his precinct captains in the city flip 30 to 40 voters per precinct over to GOP ballots with instructions to vote for Topinka. That would make the guber race a WIN-WIN for Daley either way ... perhaps an even bigger win for Daley if Judas beats Blago.
