Read my tag line. I am not a "GOP'er"
The Illinois GOP is partially to blame for recruiting Keyes from OUT OF STATE which was a HUGE NEGATIVE from Day One. Keyes ran a stupid and feeble campaign. He should have stayed home instead of traveling to Illinois to accept the challenge. The Illinois voters spoke, even the dead ones, and the Emanuel/Obama Crime Syndicate is now in office.
The Illinois GOP called on him to blunt the race card and there were no other choices for candidate.
Keyes was at least nationally recognized but, was an outsider come lately and a carpetbagger.
Barry would have run unopposed but for Keyes.
This goes back to the Illinois GOP. Why would they need to go out of state to find a candidate? If there were no suitable candidates in their own state, they weren’t doing their jobs and they didn’t deserve to win the seat. This is my complaint about the GOP, they have no foresight and they tend to fold under the slightest pressure instead of fighting like the Democrats. They are all a waste of time.
I feel your pain but, life happens....
I feel no pain, the GOP is feeling it. And the American people are feeling it, thanks to a total lack of leadership in both parties.
Don’t send any loot to the national party, ever.
just support your candidates.
Every time I get an email or letter from “Casper Milktoast, Steele” I send back my little missive.
I don’t care how much money the guy raises, he is an equivocater.
100% agreed.
