Caption contest!
Wednesday, Aug 14, 2013 - Posted by Rich Miller * From a friend who is at this morning’s Democratic County Chairmen’s brunch. If you can’t read the t-shirts, they say “Kwame Raoul, Democrat for Illinois”…  Our previous caption contest winners should expect to gather at the Miller tent at about 2:30 today. Send me an e-mail for confirmation.

I’m not if it would help, but can I buy another vowel ?
- IrishPirate - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 10:48 am:
There’s no I in kwAmE rAOUl.
- wordslinger - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 10:49 am:
“Irish there was another choice — Vote Raoul”
- Anon - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 10:55 am:
New Raoul for Governor slogan unveiled: “He’s not those other two guys”
- Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 11:03 am:
“KR is OK!”
I apologize for not being able to attend today, but as always thanks to Rich.
I will do my best to make it up … I promise.
- DanL60 - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 11:03 am:
Finally, a Democrat for Illinois!
- Logic not emotion - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 11:16 am:
DanL60: I LOL’d at yours. Given the state of the state and that the Democrats have control, one could definitely make an argument that all the other democrats have been against Illinois. It may be refreshing to actually have one FOR Illinois.
- Norseman - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 11:21 am:
Shucks Willie, I had two people lined up for the campaign rally.
- Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 11:27 am:
- Norseman -,
You can’t count you an me in that number!
To the Caption,
“Raoul Campaign T-shirts, for ANY office; for ANY occasion…”
- 47th Ward - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 12:20 pm:
Bleating Raoul.
- PublicServant - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 12:41 pm:
“I want my Kwame!”
Seriously, it all depends on what he advocates on pensions…Brady and Murphy seem way to happy with their “We’re making progress” comments, however.
- Mason born - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 12:46 pm:
Kwame Raoul Because I’m not Pat Quinn.
- Montrose - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 2:16 pm:
Kwame Raoul - Because he can pull off bald.
- zatoichi - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 2:43 pm:
The Raoul Train, ‘the hippest trip in America’ is coming to your town. Get on board. Love. Peace. Raoul! Out!
- Soccermom - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 3:42 pm:
Montrose, you raise an excellent point. Would this be the least hirsute set of Democratic candidates for governor in Illinois history?
- Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 3:50 pm:
A shirt like that says, “I’m formal, but I like to party”.
- Joan P. - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 4:28 pm:
@ soccermom:
Although correlation is not causation, the fact that our various jailed governors all had pretty good heads of hair suggests that maybe it’s time for a bald guy.
- Soccermom - Wednesday, Aug 14, 13 @ 4:43 pm:
Jason P, you raise an excellent point. I also am trying to figure out where Adlai Stevenson’s campaign would fit into this analysis; he apparently did not have a primary opponent, but he won against a GOP candidate with a very attractive hairstyle.
- Just The Way It Is One - Thursday, Aug 15, 13 @ 2:40 am:
“For Illinois, People, it’s GOT to be Kwame Raoul–UNlike the Others, HE’S no fool–and in the Race against that other Power-riddled Duo, you can know ONE thing for certain: he’ll SURELY Out “Daoul!!!”
