Dahl: “Hey! Where’s my wallet?”
Rauner: “You can have it back — but only after my Turnaround Agenda passes.”
Dahl: “What?!?”
Rauner: “It’s called ‘negotiation’, Dave.”
“You know Dave, I look at this House-Senate softball game and it reminds me of owning the Red Sox… but half these guys are helping me destroy the state, the other half are trying to stop me. It’s bizarre”

Okay Governor, just this once…but I still want a damn answer to my question!
Like my buddy Dave, I get angry with the system too and want to boo it. I get so sick of those career politicians dodging questions and sticking to their so-called talking points.
“I said… ‘Strike out or I’ll primary you next March’ … there it is, Dave, strike three… isn’t this softball game fun. Wait till you see who I get to make an error in the 3rd inning… “
“Here they come, Dave. I made them all watch a video on Lemmings and sent an email that if they don’t walk around the Capitol like a bunch of Lemmings I’ll primary both Caucuses… Aw, they are so cute… “
“Dave, can you believe it? Odds are 2 in 5 of those AFSCME protesters voted for me. I always laugh when I see or hear ‘em, Dave, I just can’t help it… “
