Bloody brilliant choice
- Amuzing Myself - Tuesday, Oct 8, 13 @ 10:51 am:
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.

Evelyn, did I ever tell you how Jim Edgar and I also used to color coordinate when I served as his chief of staff?

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.

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: 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?

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…
