We Need To Support Andy McKenna In Ill Gov Race
Written By : Dan Riehl

Jim Ryan, whose finance director was convicted as part of the Tony Rezko kerfuffle, is targeting Andy McKenna with bogus attacks because he knows McKenna’s the guy to beat for a run-off. Redstate seems to appreciate the wisdom in supporting McKenna.

I know folks in the McKenna camp. He’s a rather establishment fella, but not bad and would be much more acceptable than Dillard.

While I appreciate some emotional support for Andrzejewski, perhaps due to a Lech Walesa endorsement, the problem is, Andrzejewski is bringing up the rear in a five candidate race. And it’s likely to only open up the door for an O-bot to slip through without a run-off.

Dillard endorsed Barack Obama. He even shot a commercial for Obama. When McCain became the nominee for the GOP, Dillard shut up, but the record is still there.

That would be terrible news for Illinois, the GOP and conservatives as a whole. The smart play is to get behind Andy McKenna. Time is running out with the election slated for Tuesday and early voting having already begun.

You can view his site and support him here.

    Support McKenna??!! Dan, you couldn’t BE more wrong. I live in Illinois, friend, and McKenna is one of the worst candidates we have. Andy McKenna is no “outsider” as he paints himself. He was GOP party chairman and presided over the decade where the GOP lost EVERY statewide office. He stole party funds to float his own name as a governor candidate when he was chairman and he violated his own oath not to present himself as a candidate while he worked for the party as its chairman. He worked hand-in-hand with all the most corrupt Democrats while he was chairman and he stood as an opponent of Senate Bill 600 that would allow the actual voters on the Republican side to elect their own party leadership (as the democrats are allowed to do here).

    Unfortunately, we still have too many guys running. There are 5 of them! Now, Jim Ryan is a gun banning, anti-constitutionalist, so Ryan is no good at all either. Plus you are right about his ties to criminals. Bill Brady is an empty suit so he’s a bad vote, too. Kirk Dillard is in bed with the unions so he’s out. Adam Andrejewski is pretty good but I’m afraid he’d be eaten alive by Springfield, he’s a bit naive. So, that leaves Dan Proft. Tough guy. I’ll vote Proft, myself, though I like Adam a lot.

    The link to his site notwithstanding, if you expect people – especially Tea Partiers – to support your candidate, it would behoove you to explain why based on where he stands on issues instead of who’s running attack ads against him.

    We are NOT Republicans, and so do not care about your R winning the seat. Put appropriate candidates before us if you want our votes. Did you not learn the lessons of McCain and Scozzafava?

    Exactly, rightwingrocker! Erick Erickson has NO idea what he’s talking about with that endorsement of McKenna. McKenna is one of the worst crooks and part of the good old boy network that destroyed the Ill. GOP. He’s the worst one of them.

    Just goes to show the GOP will never be a true home for the Tea Party movement. Two years ago, though, I had an idea, and built a platform on it. It would be a great platform for the Tea Party movement. Here’s the link:

    I plan to revise it for 2010, but there aren’t many changes that will be necessary. It’s basic, and perfect for the Tea Party movement, I think.

    Why not put your own two cents in?
