Jack Ryan back in the IL Senate race???

[tcfrogs]

He still has not removed himself from the ballot - does anyone think he might get back in???

[Caution]

1. hope he does

nothing like watching a rpublican get his butt kicked on election day.

[lapfog_1]

2. I think he believes that IF the flap about the sex clubs

blows over, he can jump back in (or, in fact, never officially
removes himself). He is dreaming... he's toast.

5. Especially...

since there is MORE dirt than came out.

3. Anybody who would run against Obama

is not only doomed to a landslide defeat but is also unpatriotic and Un-American.

[tcfrogs]

8. That's just mean

There are plenty of honorable people who can run as a Repug. Doesn't mean that they will win, but someone has to run.

Please explain - unpatriotic & un-american???

[bluestateguy]

13. I was kidding...sort of

I take a dim view of anybody who would purport to stand in Obama's way.

[tcfrogs]

16. OK

understood. Just wondering...

[chiburb]

17. Don't apologize, you were right. n/t

[chiburb]

15. Name one.

4. No one else is willing to be the sacrificial lamb.

7. not quite correct

James Oberweis, millionaire milkman, wants badly to run, and he will, too, if they let him

but they won't, as his platform rests upon the mostly single plank of very very restrictive immigration policies, particularly regarding Mexico

this is diametrically opposed to the chihuahua in chief's proposal, aimed directly AT hispanic voters, so the Illinois GOP 'leadership' won't let him have it

[tcfrogs]

9. mmmmm

Milk!

[GOPisEvil]

12. Ahh...after last night, I wouldn't be in a hurry to run.

Thanks for the info.

[Wickerman]

19. What an idiot. Wonder who has tended his cows for so long?

Many of the factory farms hire illegals. So, more restrictive immigration policies, the less pay illegals would accept to be housed and fed while working his farms? :think:

6. There's no one who could possibly beat Obama....

so why don't they just leave Ryan on there?

[tcfrogs]

11. That's why I posted this

because no one seems to want to take over for Ryan. He might as well just take his beating from Obama.

[in_cog_ni_to]

10. He may get back in, but

will lose BIG if he does. Bring it on, Jackie!

[larryepke]

14. It doesn't matter.

Any candidate is will be defeated in November by Obama.

The Rep candidate will only be able to gain name recognition for future attempts.

Therefore, I think Ryan may want to keep a low profile this year and, if he runs again, hope that his love life scandal will be forgotten.

18. Tick tock

August 26th is the LAST day to change the ballot.
