  1. - DS - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:36 pm:

    Allan West, because why not?


  2. - Sneky snek - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:42 pm:

    Rodney Davis


  3. - Boomer - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:43 pm:

    Kirk Dillard, He is not a billionaire and he understands how Illinois operates.


  4. - Nazgul - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:45 pm:

    Kirk Dillard because he is a DuPage guy.


  5. - Sox Sadness - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:46 pm:

    Ken Griffin. Let’s just end it. One way or the other.


  6. - Back to the Future - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:46 pm:

    USDA John Lausch or Congressman Adam Kinzinger.
    Both have worked hard to get where they are at and have served the country honorably.
    They are also smart and very capable.


  7. - JS Mill - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:47 pm:

    Dillard. He is the type of republican that I can support.


  8. - Saluki with a Job - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:48 pm:

    Mike Ditka - just to see him debate Bailey.


  9. - uialum - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:52 pm:

    Jeanne Ives. Just to see Darren Bailey’s reaction.


  10. - Furtive Look - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 2:55 pm:

    Tom Haine. Because he went to Princeton.


  11. - Jim Edgar - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:04 pm:

    Turn the clock back to what last worked in a Repub led state…


  12. - Jim Edgar - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:05 pm:

    I’d like to turn the clock back to what last worked in a Repub led state.


  13. - thechampaignlife - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:12 pm:

    Blago… What, too soon?


  14. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:16 pm:

    The Dillard thought is interesting, like a nod to the old ways.

    So, because of that alone, Dillard.


  15. - Rooting Interest - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:22 pm:

    Dillard, because if the last two occupants of the mansion have shown us anything, it’s that Governor isn’t an entry-level position.


  16. - Springfield Spinner - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:27 pm:

    Scott Gryder because his eloquence makes him the Stacey Abrams of the GOP.


  17. - Rock and Paper - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:31 pm:

    The humble and honest man from Oswego : OW. The man is never in doubt and has opinions on every issue you can imagine. He’s fight the dangerous “Let’s Go Brandon ” movement sweeping the GOP and the nation.


  18. - DaBlues - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:34 pm:

    Tom Demmer. He’s a modern day Edgar who would surround himself with people from both parties who would want to do the work for him and the state.


  19. - Oswego Willy - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:36 pm:

    Not me, nope.

    It’s an odd trolling.

    For me, the declared crop… whew.


  20. - Ashland Adam - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:39 pm:

    Scott Drury.

    Because he’s a former federal prosecutor.


  21. - Dance Band on the Titanic - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:44 pm:

    Dan Proft. Because someone needs to come in sixth in that primary.


  22. - Progressive Caucus - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:46 pm:

    Scott Gryder . He can out talk and out walk fitness icon JB Pritzker.


  23. - Now I'm down in it. - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:47 pm:

    Kirk Dillard, no question about it. A JB vs. Kinzinger match-up would be entertaining, but we’re all tired of entertainment in politics. It’s not even fun anymore. Dillard is the GOP’s only hope. But I can’t imagine him making it through a GOP primary without being bought by Ken Griffin. That would make him no better than JB.


  24. - Now I'm down in it. - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:48 pm:

    “Dance Band on the Titanic” - you win.


  25. - ;) - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:51 pm:

    Michael Madigan…the other one. Just because.


  26. - Ghost of Louis Briatta - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:57 pm:

    I say Scott Gryder. He can take on the Trump element of the GOP and the “Let’s Go Brandon movement” at stadiums.


  27. - Still Waiting - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 3:57 pm:

    Roger Eddy because he knows how to work across the aisle to get things accomplished.


  28. - Anonymous - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 4:10 pm:

    Jim Edgar


  29. - Ron Burgundy - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 4:21 pm:

    Rodney might as well. If he stays in his district under the proposed map he’s basically running statewide anyway.


  30. - Friends of Gail J. - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 4:21 pm:

    I say OW because he knows Illinois GOP politics . Also, he knows all the important people in Oswego .


  31. - Bogey Golfer - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 4:31 pm:

    Dillard. Could actually win a debate with Pritzker.


  32. - Give Me A Break. - Friday, Oct 15, 21 @ 4:31 pm:

    Pate Phillip just see Bailey try and conservative him.
