Just spotted, Sen. Dillard working the crowd at #Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus Conference - he reads @CapitolFax
* From the photo…
I’ll convince commenter “Cincinnatus” - a noted Dillard supporter - to buy the winner an adult beverage.

“You … you are part of the 19% that voted Republican … well, Gracias!”

“I remember you, From Election Day … yes … Oh you did? Well, maybe next time you can vote for us Republicans.”
“I hope I can get your support … by sundown tomorrow.”
“There you are … right there … me pointing at you … part of the Latino community, … Hey, HI! … and here I am … with you …See, I’m trying!”

Dillard to himself: Man, time to ease off the tequila shots with Tony. My hand is so blurry I can hardly see it.

Dillard “So there I was a college student in Mexico for spring break, and there was this guy… with a little booth on the street… selling these beans, that - you won’t belive this were jumping… just like this. It was unbelieveable. Do you have any?”

After GOP losses of historic proportions, 2014 Gubernatorial candidate Kirk Dillard moves so quickly to jump on the Latino bandwagon, he’s but a blur.

“Oh, don’t cover up your shirt … what does it say … ‘Yo ..(heart) …Tesorero Rutherford… por …Gobernador ‘… That’s not funny…”

In an attempt to woo Hispanic support, Kirk Dillard belts out, “I want to be in America, everything free in America” before opening in the road company performance of “West Side Story” next week in Springfield.

Sen. Tony Munoz is gently pulled aside by an onlooker as Sen. Kirk Dillard begins to simulate a lasso trick he once saw on TV.

Dr. Emmett Brown: Now, remember. According to my theory, the Tea Party interfered with the GOP and Latino’s first meeting. If they don’t meet, they won’t build a significant relationship, they won’t work toward common goals and they won’t vote for one another. That’s why Dillard’s disappearing from that photograph. JBT will follow, and unless you repair the damage, you’ll be next.
Rutherford: Sounds pretty heavy.

I looks like Roxanne is showing him the door.

Did you say, “Yo quiero Kirk Dillard?”

Cincy told me I need to go out there and shake a few more hands. But the mechanical handshaking device he lent me is on the fritz.

“you want me to try on that authentic outfit AND pose for a picture? …OK, I gues …!”

Roxanne and Dillard demonstrate a flawless french drop misdirection to make Pat Quinn’s grassroots pension plan appear behind someones ear.
Moments later everyone was stunned in silence once they realized where Pat Quinn had produced his plan from…

Sorry, Mezcal shots always give me the jitters. Let’s stop as soon as I start to look like I’d at least be OK for the community.

Dillard: “So you all speak Mexican?”
Comment by Sinister Friday, Nov 16, 12 @ 3:45 pm
“Oh, so that means you speak Mexican, and you speak… Spanish? How do you guys communicate so well, then?”
Comment by Oswego Willy Friday, Nov 16, 12 @ 3:55 pm
You know when I served as Jim Edgar’s chief of staff there was nothing the governor and I enjoyed more than a chicken chimachanga at Chili’s. Sometimes when I felt frisky I would go with the steak chimachanga when I was Jim Edgar’s chief of staff.

Dillard - “I believe you mistaken. I’m sure we have a large Latino community in Hinsdale. I often see Latinos out working on their lawns.”
