My question is: does anyone believe he has a good chance at winning?

Time to relaunch Chicago Petition Consultants?

Just what we need, another good ol' boy, back room dealing, corrupt Democrat posing as a Republican.

McKenna is an affront to all conservative true believers.

He's the guy presiding over the Illinois GOP as every single solitary state constitutional office went to the Democrats.

Great f@*king track record.

I would prefer voting for a Democrat than voting for that clown. And I equate voting for a Democrat with getting a rectal exam from a first year medical intern.

Please, fill in the blanks, The Parking Ticket Geek. Do you approve of Mr. McKenna's track record or to the contrary? Perhaps his strategy was to let one party control all of the Constitutional offices & the legislative branch co-incident with the State's biggest tax increase since Republican Richard Ogilvie imposed it.

qstrian, etal.

Let me be clear. Mr. McKenna's track record speaks very loudly for itself--IT SUCKS!!!

For a true believer, like myself, we disdain guys like that.

We want people with principles, not with their hand out or on your wallet.

BTW: Closet liberal? No one has ever confused me for a liberal. More like Libertarian. NOT liberal.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.
