* Until today’s announcement that she’d be Bruce Rauner’s running mate, Evelyn Sanguinetti called herself Evelyn Pacino Sanguinetti and featured Rauner opponent Kirk Dillard on her Facebook page…
Many thanks to Senator Dillard for his words of Republican encouragement at RNHA, DuPage, meet and greet prior to Lincoln Day Dinner.
* Let’s welcome her to the race with a photo she posted of herself with Dillard…

Mr. Dillard, Will you sign this nominating petition?

Evelyn: Little known fact. He still owes me $200,000, too.

Bloody brilliant choice

editorial note: voters can take this picture and rip it right down the center to see the effects in DuPage County on the Governor’s race.
So, was this Rutherford or Brady’s choice for Rauner? Surely that has to be reported as some sort of In Kind contribution to one or both of them.

Dillard meets with another fallback choice for when Erika Harold rejects him.

Evelyn, did I ever tell you how Jim Edgar and I also used to color coordinate when I served as his chief of staff?
Comment by too obvious Tuesday, Oct 8, 13 @ 11:24 am
Evelyn, do you think Bruce could float me some cash? I’m good for it, just ask Ron Gidwitz…on second thought maybe don’t ask Ron Gidwitz.
Comment by too obvious Tuesday, Oct 8, 13 @ 11:27 am
This woman covers all bases.Two Italian last names, plus she’s also a Latina. And a picture with the guy she dumped. If I was BR I would
watch my back. I like her!

“I like both of these guys, but Rauner has more money so I’m going with him.”
Comment by NW Illinois Democrat Tuesday, Oct 8, 13 @ 11:34 am
My heart is with Dillard and his pro-life values. But my head is with Rauner and all that cash to travel first class around the state promoting me and BR.

Evelyn and Kirk:
DuPage isn’t big enough to settle this score!
Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Oct 8, 13 @ 3:51 pm
Evelyn: Kirk, a picture?
Kirk: Sure, hey, you need a sticker?
E: No, I have one, thanks.
K: Oh … so do you want to put it on for the picture?
E: It’s too sticky, it was pulling on my coat.
K: Yeah, we had that problem with that, but I have another one, so you want to just put it on for the picture?
E: It doesn’t match OUR colors, look at us Kirk!
K: You know it’s just a sticker
E: Really, I understand, and I tell ya, I like a good sticker ..
K: Well, here you go then…
E: Kirk, I was just hoping for a picture …and can we take it away from your sign?
K: Yeah, the “D-il-lard” thing, we are working on that, but the stickers… the stickers look real good, see …
E: Senator, I would like a picture with you. Do you want to take a picture, or do I have to wear the sticker?
K: Would be better with the sticker …I like stickers …
E: Well, I don’t like stickers. Any. Stickers.
K: But these are the new ones, you could be the …
E: Senator! No! No to the sticker. I said it, there. Man, you can be pushy with the sickers..
K: Is it the colors? Shape? Feedback is important.
E: Smile?
(picture taken)
E: Man, Kirk, you are going to regret this. I just wanted a picture and look at all this I went through to get one silly picture.
K: Do you want to take a sticker home? (snickers)
E: You will regret this Senator Dillard…
