Comment by Ducky LaMoore Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:25 pm
“Ms. Munger’s completed lack of understanding the Office of the Comptroller, her blatent disregard of her oath, and the laws of Illinois is what I hope to show voters I agree with, 100%”

I should have never entered the public sector. Look at me, sitting at a table with the help.”

Munger: 7 times 8… uh… 49…?
Mendoza: 7 times 8… uh… my percentage of the vote?

Comment by Ducky LaMoore Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:35 pm
“I was told there would be math in this debate, and you can start with me, then with Ms. Munger after, but oh yes, there will be math in this debate today.”

Everything Munger says, including No Budget, No Pay for Legislators, Me Too! Me Too! Me Too!”

Comment by Louis G. Atsaves Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:41 pm
“In short, what I’m saying is, after you take away the Rauner and Madigan stuff here, I’ve done a great job of taking Ms. Munger’s ideas and first twisting them, then making them my own… which is pretty cool when you think about it… “

Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:42 pm
“Listen, if you’re going to call me a mushroom for Madigan why can’t I call her a tool for Rauner? After all, that’s what this race has come down to and I think mushrooms are more popular than tools.”

Comment by Downstate Democrat Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:45 pm
“When I voted for those budgets as a representative they balanced. That’s what I was told and I do what I’m told. Is that a problem?”

Comment by blue dog dem Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:49 pm
They didn’t tell me there would be math.

Comment by Whatever Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:52 pm
“Whoever wins, one of us is eventually going to get sued and we will have to pay the legislators. Until then, we both got everyone buffaloed, and that, my friends, is a bipartisan agreement… “

Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 3:58 pm
Does SM realize she won’t get paid either???

Comment by anonymous retiree Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 4:02 pm
Leslie seethes over the fact that Susana’s Fitbit says she’s two steps ahead of her.

Comment by Jocko Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 4:03 pm
“I know that Rauner already wrote the endorsement for Ms. Munger for your paper and all, but please stay awake long enough so I don’t get bored pretending you guys care too”

Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 4:03 pm
“… and ‘tronc’… you call yourselves tronc now? I’d be more worried about that then asking us silly questions”

“Hey! Who ya gonna vote for? A woman with a fancy-schmancy manicure who’s scared of busting a nail on the computer, or a one-two puncher who’s gonna mix it up with that keyboard?”

Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 4:11 pm
“Before you fawn all over Ms. Munger and Gov. Rauner, where do I validate parking and I thought I smelled Garrett’s popcorn. Will Garrett’s be made available now, later, to go… “

With apologies to TSwift:

She’s cheer captain and I’m with the speaker…

“And for the record ‘I can, and I will’ is trademarked so I don’t want to see that in your newspaper or on your website without proper compensation. In front of you are the pay schedules for headlines, highlighted quote, and a special price for the line to be attached to a picture… “

“See these 16-inch guns? I didn’t get these guns in a bridge game, pal. I got these guns carrying apples. Bushels and bushels of apples.”

“No, just because I’m Chicago City Clerk doesn’t mean I’m a rubber stamp. I know how to USE a rubber stamp. I can rubber stamp with the best of ‘em. But you call me a rubber stamp again, and you’ll SEE some stamping, lemme tell ya.”

LM: I’ll have you know that I’ve memorized my ciphering now. Unlike my opponent, I don’t need a pen to do the math. I’ve also memorized the gozintos as well.

Comment by G'Kar Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 6:42 pm
God, she just drones on…..

Comment by ZATOICHI Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 8:28 pm
Did I forget to say that my opponent is only four inferential leaps of logic away from supporting child molester?

Comment by Quizzical Tuesday, Nov 1, 16 @ 9:06 pm
