* Gov. Rauner did a couple of interviews yesterday. Here he is talking to the Joliet paper…
Herald-News: The Grundy County State’s Attorney Jason Helland is running for Secretary of State. Do you have thoughts on him?
Rauner: The one person that I’m really advocating strongly for is Erika Harold to be Attorney General. There are other competitive races where I’m not taking an active position one way or another. Erika Harold is the one where I’m very – and Darlene Senger for comptroller. We’ve got to have a comptroller who is independent of Madigan.
He apparently needs to memorize his new campaign talking points.

Rauner’s not in charge of his new campaign talking points.

Can’t wait to see all his evidence of collusion.

Meanwhile, Ives is only focused on one race.

Is it me, or does he sound a little bit like Steve Martin from the end of The Jerk, there?

Helland is the only Republican running for Secretary of State. It’s odd that Rauner immediately changed the subject on a direct question about him. Is there a fall out between Helland and the Governor?

===We’ve got to have a comptroller who is independent of Madigan.===
With these people, accusation is always confession.

It’s kind of crazy that Frerichs wins ‘14 by something like 1000 votes and doesn’t get a serious challenger.

So much for SOS and treasurer. All those millions, and not even going to try and back candidates against the very wounded Preckwinkle and Berrios.
He’s not party building. It’s a cult of personality.

I guess GOP pols figure that it’s a pretty tall order to take on Frerichs.
Sorry, couldn’t help it.

Makes me a lot less likley to vote for Harold.
Wonder how much dough he’ll kick in to Harold’s Campaign, besides the “in kind” baloney.

Can’t imagine how bad Helland must feel. Shaw/IPI reporter tosses up softball and GovJunk names every candidate but him and Slip&Sue. Yikes.
