WOOO HOOO!!!! Hultgren projected the winner over Hastert, 55-45% I have to say I wasn't expecting that. Daddy's boy Hastert had all the money and endorsements, and even beat Hultgren in an Illinois Review poll aimed at conservatives.

A Brady/Plummer ticket (first solid conservative GOP ticket in Illinois in 30+ years?) along with Hultgren to take out Bill Foster in November would appear to be a gem in an otherwise disappointing night.

BTW, Glenn Beck came out this morning and announced that he had NOT "endorsed Adam Andrejewski" despite the Adam campaign making up an "endorsement" from Limbaugh and Beck on Monday night due to footage of the Leah Walesa Tea Party rally being featured on their shows.

And yeah it's stupid for Illinois to having a primary this year, but remember it's occuring at this time (are we first in the nation?) because our state legislature moved the primary back to coincide with the "Super Tuesday" presidential primary ... so those early "presidential primaries" are even more ridiculous.
