Lake County Circuit Court Clerk and Republican Committeeman for Precinct 205 Keith Brin announced he’s vying to oust Bob Cook as chairman of the Lake County Republican Party in next month’s election. […]
Brin has already received support in his bid for Chairman with endorsements from State Representative and Former Lake County Republican Party Chairman JoAnn Osmond, Lake Villa Township Supervisor and Former Lake County Republican Party Chairman Dan Venturi, Lake County Treasurer Bob Skidmore, Lake County Board Chairman Aaron Lawlor, State Representative Ed Sullivan, and Illinois Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka.
The current chairman led an effort to oust Sullivan in last week’s GOP primary when he supported Bob Bednar, building up to a challenge for Cook’s spot.
Rep. Sullivan, who was opposed because he voted for the gay marriage bill, beat Bednar 59-41.

Good Riddance. Hopefully he wins.

Being a Slytherin Republican is hard.
Reagan Republicans support Bernie Petersens and Mark Beaubiens. Gotta have BOTH to grow. Choosing to be a Litmus Tester might lead to a failing of a test to seem tolerant to My Party’s growth…

Keith is a good egg.

Payback is a b….a drag.

Dan Proft is elated.
He believes Republicans need to be held accountable.
Maybe Proft will give $100K to Cook’s campaign, since he walked him down the plank and all?

What’s going to happen to GOP state central committeeman Mark Shaw in all of this? Go down with Cook?

If Proft runs Cook’s campaign, then he is sure to lose.

Next, Sandack’s crew needs to do some local housecleaning, too.
