Mailer urges Dems to vote for Sandack
Tuesday, Mar 18, 2014 - Posted by Rich Miller * A political committee that doesn’t seem to be registered yet with the state has sent a mailer to Democrats urging them to vote in the Republican primary for Rep. Ron Sandack… As noted above, Illinois Common Sense PAC is not registered with the board of elections. Sandack’s opponent Keith Matune is supported by Dan Proft. * Meanwhile, here’s one of several pieces criticizing Rep. Jeanne Ives… Rep. Ives’ Republican opponent is backed by organized labor, particularly the teachers. * And speaking of Ives, House GOP Leader Jim Durkin has been making the round of campaign offices today and stopped by to see Ives… Caption?

Nicely done, forgot that one.
Jeanne Ives stopped lecturing 3rd Graders long enough to take a picture with Leader Durkin. Ives then proceeded to continue her lecturing, making the parents cry…

Jeanne Ives agrees to photo to only have the opportunity to get her knife out of Leader Durkin’s back without anyone noticing.

After the picture, Leader Durkin inquired of Rep. Ives about some missing frozen strawberries…

I think it is a good thing Ives got zero results. I hope gets zero results in the future.

Man, I would hope the Sandack campaign had an apparatus of their own to target Dems. I would assume they’ve been doing that, but then again if HRO was calling the shots maybe not.

Hey, if you ever figure out who made the mailer, give them my email address. In the future I would love to give them our updated logo.

Wait just one minute here…the Adam Johnson advertisement is factually incorrect. Michael Madigan has passed many bills over the years. So, leprechauns do pass bills, and only the Easter Bunny and Jeanne Ives have not. I demand a retraction.

Later, Rep. Ives was surprised to learn she had posed for a picture with the leader of her caucus. She said, “Well, I hope he votes for me.”

There’s a sad sort of clanging
From the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple, too
And up in the nursery
An absurd little bird
Is popping out to say coo-coo
(Coo-coo, coo-coo)
So long, farewell
Auf Wiedersehen, adieu
Adieu, adieu
To you and you and you

You could probs send a mailer to soft d’s for less than 5 grand so no need to register the PAC.
