This morning, this gem from Bill Brady, likely the next governor of Illinois:
I know you have to play the game, Mr. Brady, and once you win this one you'll be indebted to the Illinois machine. But I hope you will realize that you're even more indebted to the PEOPLE who will ELECT YOU. The machine works against us in ...so many ways. Up here in Rockford, the machine has virtually ignored some excellent Republican candidates, left them scratching for money just for campaign signs, as the central committee is literally throwing races. We even have Republicans in Winnebago county endorsing DEMOCRAT candidates, showing loyalty to a "Courthouse Party," and throwing the Republican electorate (as well as their CHOSEN candidates) under the bus.
I pray, sir, that you will remember that it's not the party elites who will make or break you - it's the good people of Illinois who are sick to death of being manipulated and disenfranchised. I don't know a good conservative who feels anything but REVULSION at the prospect of voting for Kirk. I swear, if our primaries were still being held in April rather than February, we would have had a good, solid conservative as our candidate. Most Tea Partiers up here plan to either write in a 3rd party candidate or not vote at all, even if it means a win for Giannoulius. We're tired of being told "You'd better vote for this despicable RINO or else!!!" Well, sir, we have gone so long without adequate representation that we know from experience that the "or else" isn't much worse than the RINO.
So go ahead and play your political game now - I know you must. But know that it will not make you any friends outside of Chicago, nor among Constitutional conservatives. Good luck on Tuesday. Maybe after that you can concentrate on representing We the People, not We the Party Elites. At least, I hope you can.
