    Comment by wordslinger Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 10:52 am

  22. Kirk, I’m thinking about starting royalty payments for every time you drop my name. With Gidwtiz abandoning you, I don’t think you can afford it.

    Comment by Jaded Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 11:03 am

  25. Yes, absolutely I would love to be your Chief of Staff Kirk. But maybe I should check with Brenda, you remember what happened last time I made a decision without checking with her first.

    Comment by siriusly Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 11:06 am

  26. Kirk you’re right those brown coats make Rauner and the other candidates look phony. But honestly, I am not sure this shirt is doing much for you.

    Comment by siriusly Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 11:08 am

  27. “The Arnhold” and Danny Devoto joined at the hip and known by close friends as “The Doublemint Twins”.
    kirk Dillard: “Did I ever tell you that Jim Edgar endorsed me?”
    Jim Edgar:”Yeah, yeah. I already know that Kirk. I am the one that agreed to go along with the endorsement thing, can’t you try to remember that?”
    Kirk Dillard: Oh, yeah. Sorry, I forgot, Jim.”

    Comment by A Casual Observer Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 11:28 am

  28. “Don’t look now Kirk , but the Guy behind us is an obvious Democrat mooching Free Beer”

    Comment by x ace Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 11:52 am

  29. That’s right, Kirk. You can squeeze a lot of money out of insurers. Just don’t sit on one of their boards after you leave office. That Kemper thing pretty much finished me off. Lucky I didn’t end up with George.

    Comment by Cook County Commoner Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 12:09 pm

  30. Who are you trying to kid? The guy who was my chief of staff was a lot younger, thinner, and didn’t have any grey hair!

    Comment by one of the 35 Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 2:20 pm

  31. Jim Edgar earning his $177,000 state salary as a “professor.”

    Comment by Filmmaker Professor Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 2:24 pm

  32. Hey Jim, you want a hot dog. A couple volunteers brought me 159 of them. Only problem is no buns or beans to go with them.

    Comment by A guy... Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 2:52 pm

  33. “Can I get sewed to your hip?”

    Comment by Precinct Captain Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 3:09 pm

  34. “Remember when we wore the same size shirts?”

    Comment by Arthur Andersen Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 3:59 pm

  35. Kirk: Geeze, Jim! Couldn’t you have worn a red shirt today instead of a blue one? Thank goodness you are at least wearing one of my stickers on your shirt. Are you trying to tell me something, Jim? Mike Madigan or Quinn didn’t edge me out as your “best buddy”, did they?

    Comment by A Casual Observer Friday, Aug 16, 13 @ 4:07 pm

  36. Hey, boss … that silver toupee looks very distinguished on you.
