The Illinois GOP-E stabbed Pete Fitzgerald in the back. Because of the Illinois GOP-E, we got Obama.
Exactly. But in IL, the GOP-E and the Democrats all operate out of the same office, AKA the Combine.
Fitz wasn’t part of the combine. He had to go so they launched a jihad against him to scare him out of the race, they succeeded. Then they didn’t like the candidate that won the primary to replace him (Jack Ryan) so they cut him loose because he got kinky with his own wife according to sealed divorce records and then replaced him with out-of-stater Alan Keyes who was sure to get crushed. Conservatives loved Keyes and so they went along. Brilliant political chess and the most disgusting event to happen in this state.
Ray LaHood led the jihad against Fitzgerald. He was rewarded with a Cabinet seat.
And unlike last time when Brady won the GOP nod they got their man in the GOP primary so they are covered in both parties. Quinn will play to Rahm’s every whim to try and win his support. Rahm made out like a bandit.
