Never heard of them and I don't think they're running for President.
Dang! This story started out really well and quite hopeful for us, but went downhill quite rapidly.
As Rush has said, with liberals .."It's not the evidence that matters, it's the seriousness of the allegation"
Desperation reigns supreme among the ranks of the pathetic libs as they scramble to find something, anything to offset the torrents of flubs, misstatements, lies, flip flops and unseemly associations with people running the gamut from anarchists to Communists that surround their Messiah with the tarnished halo
That’s part and parcel of Illinois politics and the role of the Illinois GOP in it. The RNC would do well to distance themselves from these characters, but it might be too late.
How did it go “downhill”?
by getting into the RNC’s problems with Rezko.
Kass is a pretty good reporter but he is hopelessly lost in Chicago insider baseball.
He's equating the Democrats standard bearer and presidential candidate's known track record with Rezko, to some tangential ties to the party planner for the Republican convention!
Oh and somebody used Karl Rove's name in a sentence with Rezko.
by getting into the RNCs problems with Rezko.
All corrupt officials should be hung high metaphorcally regardless of party.
We hang all the corrupt officials in Washington and it will be a ghost town.
Unfortunately.
I’ve only been here a couple of years .. never seen anything like this “machine.” Hope they go after the whole rotten bunch. If they’re corrupt, nail ‘em.

We hang all the corrupt officials in Washington and it will be a ghost town.
That would be a great start. The GOP can’t take the high road and tolerate slimeballs. We have to accept some of the blame for our reputaton. Yes I now there is a double standard, but we can and should do a lot better.
Is it even possible for politics to become clean?
Unfortunately, in Illinois, political corruption is an equal-opportunity event.
It’s only gotten worse over the years. And the depth of the corruption is shown by the fact that they still do it even though Patrick Fitzgerald is the federal attorney and has a record of going after people. I don’t know if they are stupid along with being crooked, or if crookedness is like a bad habit they can’t break.
An Obama + our Nation = Abomination!
It’s a “bait and switch”. First, Kass admits some of Barry’s most glaring faults, and then he slides the knife between the ribs of the RNC. It will only work on the uninformed and the hopenchangelessly lost.
Correction: That should read BRAINWASHED children.
My Dad knows a lot of the major players in this. He said even a blind and deaf dog could tell Rezko was up to no good.
There’s a lot more to this than we’ve seen.
