Related: About this forumOK...so...could one of you guys explain why we SHOULDN'T think it sucks that Schneider won?
Really need to understand why anybody in the Illinois 10th would think it was cool to nominate a candidate who attacks MoveOn from the right and donates to Republicans.
Or why Ilya had to be stopped at all costs.

(3,744 posts)Biggert in the 11th is now running against Bill Foster (from the old 14th). Foster has a good chance I think. In the new 6th I now am with the Republicans from DuPage, Kane, McHenry and I think even a little Cook.

(20,805 posts)...but they haven't learned their Melissa Bean lesson either...you can't run as a Dem but vote with the republicans, they'll just vote your ass out, and replace you with a REAL republican...
Glad that Tammy Duckworth gets to go up against the dead-beat dad Joe Walsh....I can see the ads now "Tammy Duckworth gave up her legs for her country, Joe Walsh won't even pay child-support for his own kids, who do YOU think will have your back in Washington D.C.?"
I'd LOVE to see that ad!!!
