Hundreds of years after the planet has been razed by natural disasters and nuclear war the aliens will descend upon Earth and this will be the only memento to the foregone era of “Illinois”

I want one.

Please. Thank you. Please.

This… and a “Rauner Failed” sign… that would make my season.

It’s the 2018 Rauner version of the Bla-Goya-vich sponge

===I really want one of these…===

I want like 1000 so I can sell them at a Springsteen concert. That, and I am running low on toilet paper.

Burgers with Curran would be a nice pairing

Comment by Hamlets Ghost Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 11:19 am
Fittingly, available only in blue.

He should have plenty of spare time for this activity.

Bruce who?

Comment by Huh? Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 11:30 am
Bruce the tax free munibond salesman.

If it were accurate about the Governor’s beverage of choice, it would be “fine wine with Rauner.”

After four years of failure, all I got for it was a cheesy can cooler.

Comment by Norseman Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 11:40 am
Ugh. Leaves a sour taste in my mouth…

I wonder if the Birre con Bruce coolies will be as popular?

Comment by NeveroddoreveN Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 12:12 pm
The sidecar cooler holds just an Ounce

I am sure that this beer cozy would fail in its promises to keep the beer cold. Not only that, it would likely make the beer taste of bitterness and failure. No thanks.

Checked the Uline catalog. He had mugs and coolers but no cozies. THis place https://www.discountmugs.com/product/kzepu-promotional-beer-can-coolers-and-custom-koozies/?color=White&print_method=Blankand has custom orders for about .65 each and delivery before election day. Capt Fax could do Exit Interview Tours version

Nice, he didn’t put the year on them so he can use them when he’s running for re….. Forget it.

Comment by Anonimity Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 12:48 pm
Give out these in connection with the fundraising email and might find some interest.

Comment by West Side the Best Side Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 12:58 pm
1.4% can use’m next summer when he has a patio party in Winnetka. Pretend he’s slummin’ with the folks in the hood.

Comment by Huh? Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 1:04 pm
Bruce or Bret?

Comment by JackD Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 1:08 pm
I’ll wait til November 7th for the “Brewskis without Bruce” coozies.
Beers will taste better then.

Comment by Truthteller Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 1:15 pm
Brewskis?
Amateur and unoriginal.
Cringy

Something to wash down your “Curran Burgers” or/and “Fitzgerald Burgers.”

I have a Pritzker School of Law pen I’m very fond of.

Not as good as my apple peeler that says, “We’re Glad Again with Madigan!”

Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 1:59 pm
Collector’s item in 5 days. Every Dem will want one for his/her trophy wall. I’ll take 20 for eBay.

Bruce Rauner: Cold. Yellow. Canned.

I’ll have a brewski with Bruce Rushton.

Comment by Steve Rogers Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 3:47 pm
Cheesiest wine coozie i have ever seen.

Comment by Blue Dog Dem Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 3:50 pm
is it a tour with discontinued beers?

Comment by Amalia Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 4:13 pm
Empty koozie. Empty Carhartt. Empty promises. I’m seeing a pattern.

Comment by Henry Francis Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 4:45 pm
Does it come with a can of Stag? which rhymes with Gag which would describe this election. Still want one though great table talk item.

Comment by theCardinal Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 5:00 pm
I’ll wait for a whiskey glass that says J&B with JB.

Comment by Pot calling kettle Thursday, Nov 1, 18 @ 6:40 pm
Where can I get mine?

I’ll wear it while drinking Miller HighLife.

How appropriate. The Rauner administration has certainly driven plenty of people to drink.
