BE … be that advocate.
Do the job, do it well, do it to win, and do it with the dignity and class the position demands of its leader.
Lastly, understand, you are a “Four Top” now. With that, also means looking out for the betterment of Illinois. Keep that in mind as you balance being the counter to MJM and the Dems.
Put Poe in leadership, and move forward united. Come up with a plan, and stick to it. Radical stuff like that…
- Ravenswood Right Winger - Thursday, Aug 29, 13 @ 2:18 pm:
Help recruit a “farm team” of candidates for House seats. You can start by looking at local city councils, county boards and especially school districts. Contest every House seat. Oh, and don’t play golf on Election Day.
Stop being the party of no and stop whinning every time MJM doesn’t include you in a discussion that you could never be for in the first place. You are a good man and I know that you have the ability to rise above the petty games that Cross and Daniels loved to play but frankly they were boorish and juvenile. Work to get something constructive done instead of pointing fingers and playing the blame game.
Pick 3 or 4 seats you can win and make them the primary goal in 2014. Make a real effort in Cook County and make the democrats have to work real hard there. Remind the Cook County voters of the high taxes they pay and the mediocre service they get in return.
unite the party by appointing good leaders to help you; listen to your members and to the other party. You are a leader now, act like one. it is hard job but be a statesman and not a divider. bring back some dignity to the party and the General Assembly.
First, heal the wounds. Cross’ search for another office has opened up some deep divisions in your caucus. Those divisions need to be repaired.
No need for retaliation. You won a majority in a matter of a few days and balloting lasted less than an hour. It’s obvious you have the support of a majority, so throw a bone or two to some folks in the opposition.
You have some good, dedicated staffers, but some new blood is absolutely necessary, at the top and at the bottom. Prune the tree carefully, but do prune it.
Before this election, you had a reputation among some members as being aloof and a bit of a jerk. You overcame that today. Don’t go back to that behavior. Keep an open mind and an open door. You don’t have to agree with a member, but be respectful.
Your caucus is obviously deeply split on the pension issue. Urge compromise. Don’t be bullied by Ty Fahner or the Tribune.
Speaking of Fahner, he’s toxic. Put some distance between him and you.
And speaking of the Trib, try to understand that getting a favorable Tribune editorial is the end, not a means. That paper’s influence is declining rapidly.
Remember that if you want any sort of Republican stamp on a bill, you have to work with the majority. Those who want to boycott and abdicate shouldn’t be listened to. Obviously, capitulation is out of the question, but be firm with Madigan and develop a close relationship with Cullerton, which can help you in your dealings with His Royal Highness (something that Cross never understood, but Daniels did with Rock).
Work harder than you ever have and expect the same from your leaders and your staff.
And, whatever you do, never put bananas in the refrigerator.
Do not sell out to Rauner and his PAC. You raise the money for the rRepublican house races. If you rely on Rauner’s money, he will really control the caucus and you will be an errand boy.
Since “Run. Run like the wind!” doesn’t appear to be practical anymore…
Agree with much of what’s been said above. Get rid of the litmus tests. Focus on winning the races that can be won. Don’t be afraid to drop the hammer and apply pressure to clear primary fields for candidates who can win in the fall. Go to the table with Dem leadership and do something constructive. Party of No, or they have the votes let them fix the problem doesn’t cut it. You’re either part of the solution or part of the problem.
==Stop the Cook bashing. If you ever want to be in the majority, you’ll have to win there. There are more GOP voters and GOP money there than anywhere else, by far.== Leader Durkin lives in Cook County. I don’t think he’ll bash it too hard.

If you want to expand the House GOP universe, you will have to go outside of the borders you already control and take it to the opposition.
Support state workers on the Pension issue–Go with Cullerton’s plan–the democratic governor and house majority leader have thrown in with the Tribune and the Civic Committee. You could convert a ton of public workers into Republicans. I would surely vote for any representative, senator or candidate who supported a fair deal on the pensions.

Pretty good year for the GOP- the Chairman is from Rosemont, the Senate Leader is from LaGrange, the new House leader is from Western Springs- looks like Cook and DuPage County played pretty well. Downstate might as well just turn entirely Democrat if it wants a voice at all, any GOP member can be neutered entirely if they don’t play ball with Cook and DuPage.
Anytime Adam Brown puts a separate state bill in the hopper for Bill Mitchell and holds a press conference, cut the power to the room, it does no good for anyone.
Dupage Bard; who exactly do those downstate Dems have to play ball with in the Dem Party? Seems to me Cook County has a role in their leadership too, no?
Network with Hispanic community. Let them know how they can be a factor with the GOP.
- The DuPage Bard - Thursday, Aug 29, 13 @ 4:44 pm:
A guy- just saying if you want any voice from downstate better to be a D than an R. Conceal Carry-Forby/Phelps, Medical Marijuana-Haine/Lang (cook) Fracking-Frierichs/Bradley, SIU appointments-Claybourne, Haine, Forby, Sullivan, and Manar. I believe they will all get to vote against Equal marriage and the sex Ed bill as well. Having their cake and eating it too. The R’s don’t get anything for downstate and soon they will get even less. As I said, the downstate R’s should just head over to being D’s, will make their life much easier and they can at least sit in the room where the decisions get made. Plus most downstaters are looking for the ability to side with the Cullerton pension plan.
Leadership on the D side obviously is looking to get more people in office.
Very symbiotic relationship if you ask me. Kind of like the shark and the those little fish that clean their teeth.
Move the entire state party to the middle and focus on economic issues and you will move many of the suburban and blue collar working people right back to the GOP.
BTW, Wordslinger is not as wrong as some might assume about Cook Co bashing. It’s a favorite pastime among some suburban Cook Co Republicans, for whatever reasons.
Durkin’s got better sense — but he should discourage it in his caucus, as a waste of everybody’s time.
You know from personal experience that a Trib endorsement in a general election is no ticket to victory. Otherwise you would’ve become U.S. Senator after 2002. So don’t kowtow to the hypocrites who blast the state for making the same assumptions on investments that the Trib makes.
Some want you to seriously contest seats in Cook. Aak yourself just which incumbents are vulnerable. If you can’t name any, or any more than one, that’s a good reason not to squander a large chunk of funds there instead of on races that might be won elsewhere. That’s a lesson that should’ve been learned after the 2010 election when it was clear that more funding downstate might have made the difference in several races, while the only suburban seat won was by Harris.
If Madigan could take out Skip, he could make you have to fight every election to keep your seat. Cross had a little more protection being out in Kendall.
You have the potential to be a principled leader who does more than blame the majority for every ill the state suffers, who actually helps to shape policy for the better. That requires compromise, which is anathema to the right-wing.
I haven’t noticed a lack of Cook bashing from most quarters of the state GOP. A smart leader would put a lid on it for reasons Willie Sutton could tell you.
