Listen, I happen to like Brady personally and think he's got a bright future in Illinois politics (assuming he doesn't end up being the spoiler in this race…he does that, he’s toast); however, the numbers just aren't there for him, and he's stone broke and quickly losing momentum (not that he ever had ANY to begin with…Brady remains in the LOW single digits and is losing ground). Brady should bow out and endorse Oberweis, and then in four to eight years, Brady's the fair haired boy and heir apparent for Guv (or when he decides to run against Durbin). Phyllis Schlafly and dozens of other pro-family leaders have asked Brady to withdraw, and have as much as told him that if he is responsible for a Topinka victory; they will actively campaign against him in any future endeavor. You're right...maybe Brady isn't the Ross Perot of this election...he's the Ralph Nader (sent Bush over in 2000). I know, as a Brady supporter, it might be a bitter pill to swallow to cast a vote for Oberweis, but it is absolutely, positively, unequivocally the only way to keep Topinka out and insure that a Conservative gets in.
Since you think that Brady is losing momentum, please check his website, www.bradyforgovernor2006.com. It includes a long list of elected officials and county parties who have endorsed him. The list increases each week.
When Oberweis was the speaker at an RALC meeting, in Nov., he said that Brady should drop out because Brady was taking votes from him. I think that Oberweis is taking votes from Brady.
Brady's site was changed. The one that I mentioned was the first campaign site. Now, it's www.citizensforbillbrady.com.
