McCarter Should Unseat Shimkus (IL primary)
The News Gazette ^ | February 18, 2016 | Lee York

We have a marvelous opportunity to "remove the rascal." In Lebanon is Kyle McCarter, a conservative Illinois state Senator, worthy of your trust.

He is a successful businessman, successful in the Illinois state legislature, has fiercely defended the American family, unborn life, gun rights and traditional marriage, is committed to the conservative philosophy of limited government, national sovereignty and traditional values, and pledged to oppose any tax increases Congress proposes and to support economic freedom by working to decrease the tax burden of taxpayers.

This is a safe Republican district with no Democrat running and John Shimkus has a record that’s mediocre at best. Hopefully local conservatives will propel Kyle McCarter into Congress.

Input from Illinois Freepers is appreciated.

Shimkus isn’t the guy I’d most like to primary in IL but he’s the only one with a real challenger and he certainly merits replacement. I’m for McCarter.

I hope Sen. McCarther will win.

Rep. Roskam has a real primary challenger, Dr. Jay Kinzler. He was endorsed by the federal Family PAC, Jon Zahm, and Carl Segvich. He has many volunteers walking precincts for him, almost every day, for the past week, at least. Please read his site, www.kinzlerforcongress.com.
