This 2-sday - a new GOP candidate from Illinois. They promise! Really! [View All]

Money is on Uber-alles and his milk money. All others with any substantive bank account have already been sent packing or dropped out. Oberweist, for those who don't understand the seamy, steamy aspects of Illinois professional mud wrestling, inherited a milk fortune and thinks that ultraconservatives are related to Trotsky and Lenin. He put out a bunch of ads claiming the immigration was killing our economy, pointing mainly at hispanics. These nasty ads were so pathetic and erroneous, that even the staunchest GOP conservatives could not stomach the products he was bottling.

The only other possibility - well, there are no other possibilities. Homer Simpson, Bozo the Clown and Betty Boop were interviewed but decided that celluloid was better than tabloid.

Illinois politics is a strange, heavy duty, corrupt contact sport. On both sides of the aisle. In fact, it is hard to tell which is which, GOP or Dem, given the propensity to seek graft and bribes on both sides. That is why we are SOOOOO proud and amazed that we have a new leader, Barack Obama, to lead this party into the 21st century. Not only is he a class act, but, he has managed to avoid the snares and traps of local thuggery, criminal indictments and theft that pervades politics in this state.
