I found it fascinating that Bruce Rauner may have been behind the false "groping" charge that was used to torpedo Rutherford's career. This summer, while working the Democratic booth at the Kendall County Fair, I was about 3 or 4 feet from Bruce Rauner when, technically, he committed PHYSICAL ASSAULT. I was on one side of the table straightening things, and another worker was on the other side straightening things. Bruce Rauner, who is well above 6 feet in height, strode up from behind this man, who is about 5 feet 6 inches in height. Bruce Rauner threw his arms around this man, enfolding him in a tight grip, and rocked him back and forth, crooning sarcastically to him, "MMM, if only I could hold you in my arms and rock you long enough to make you start thinking straight and vote Republican." Then Bruce Rauner swung around to me with his hand out, jauntily proclaiming, "I'm Bruce Rauner, and I'm the Republican candidate for governor!" Rauner was obviously oblivious to the fact that he had just committed a legal crime, Assault.

Somebody should have been following this man around with a hidden camera. I am sure Rauner has done this or something very like it, again. He lacks respect for his fellow human beings, and he lacks discretion about how he appears to others, and he lacks the simple MANNERS that his mother should have taught him. Or, more likely, she tried to teach him, but he refused to learn, presuming himself to be too superior to other people to need them.
