Tony Peraica-
This is the first that I’ve seen him (live and and full color) in an interview. He creeped me out within 30 seconds - “I went to visit Stroger in the hospital but wasn’t allowed to see him”. My apologies - but what CANDIDATE goes to visit their competitor in the hospital (let alone when they are in intensive car) and did you think you would have actually had some face time with Stroger?
Not that I support Stroger and would have welcomed an alternative. But Peraica truly freaked me out!
BTW - watched WGN (impromptu debate with Topinka and Blago). Interesting exchange…. on Blago’s part. He stated that “he hardly campaigned in the primaries and he won by nearly 67% - so that was any indication of the general election - than he probably shouldn’t campaign.”
What a MORON!

Marta Elena:
My Daddy used to say that you are judged by the company you keep. And in Tony Peraica’s case, he keeps bad company. The $64,000 questions are these: who is funding Peraica? Will he be able to obtain another cool million dollars (he still owes “himself” $950,000) from his money tree? And when will he distance himself from that political time bomb/political hack, Mike Manzo, the King of Melrose Park? It’s telling how Peraica barely survived the Lyons Twp Republican Committeeman’s race, where 50% of the voters wanted an UNKNOWN over Tony. His Cook County Board seat is in play and in jeopardy!
